Music with a message

About Me

With a background in percussion, piano and guitar, Gary graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill, a man with a mission. Yet another local musician fed up with the low quality and horrendously immoral message of popular music, Gary strives to create and perform great music, played very well, that celebrates life and points people to their loving Creator in a way that makes you groove and sing along. A full length album is in the works, so stay tuned for more. Till then you can catch Gary performing regularly at local coffee shops and at the Streets of Southpoint mall. Contact [email protected] for mailing list and booking info. YOU'RE INVITED. Gary attends New Hope Church in Durham on Garret Rd, a down to earth place, made up of real people who are sincere about learning about God and having a blast while doing it. With outstanding music, a dynamic pastor and surprises every week, its an engaging, relaxed place to be. We'd love to have you join us any Sunday morning, no pressure, expectations or obligations. Come just as you are. Click the link for more info or the myspace page in the friends area.
