Blue Gary

About Me

Blue Gary are based in Manchester, England.
Self- managed and self- produced, Blue Gary are looking to end their
year- long hiatus this summer with a string of gigs around the North West
of England. .
With new additions to a line up which hasnt changed for the best part of four.
years, blue gary have spent the last 6 months recording their best work to date.
seeing the band live is a truly explosive experience. An epic sounding, solid backbone
complete with screaming guitars and wailing melodies Blue Gary are as good a
live unsigned band as exists in this country. Blue Gary have gigged in some
of the best venues in the North West, Manchesters Late Rooms, The Cavern in Liverpool and Manchesters Night and Day as well as touring the acoutsic curcuit.
Spread the word, sell your grandmothers, Blue Gary are coming to a venue near you.
