He is a No. 1 hit songwriter, recording artist, world traveling performing, session guitarist and two-time Grammy Award-winning producer.

His songs set the scenes for many major motion pictures, including “Falling and Flying” performed by Jeff Bridges in the Oscar-winning film “Crazy Heart.”
Gary still manages to find time to give back, conducting songwriting and guitar workshops at Berklee School of Music, Kerrville Folk Festival and more.
