Gary was born and raised in a small, quiet village known as New York City. His home was nestled in the quaint neighborhood of fishing boats and lighthouses, known as Sheepshead Bay. To this day, even 3000 miles away, in the hustling, bustling megalopolis of the Santa Clara Valley, if he squints his ears, he can almost hear the faint memory of those bygone Brooklyn fog horns, and the hearty cries of the local fisherman, "Are you gonna buy that fucking fish or not, lady?" Those were kinder, gentler times. And, Gary brings that same gentle kindness to the stage.

Just a note to let you know about special gig I have coming up. The band and I will be doing a podcast with KFOG DJ Renee Richardson at Café Royale in San Francisco, sponsored by the wonderful San Francisco Songwriters Coalition. (www.myspace.com/sfcoalition)
At the show, we'll be performing and also premiering a music video for“Someday”, a song that was featured on KFOG’s local scene CD. Inspiredby "Vertigo" (the Hitchcock classic) the video features some of the actual San Francisco locations where Hitchcock filmed the movie, most notably the cemetery at Mission Dolores.
Café Royale is a cozy cafe, with plenty of seating. They serve beer and wine. http://www.caferoyale-sf.com/
Hope to see you there, and thanks for taking the time to read this! Have a great day!
