Gary 'K' has been playing in both the U.S and Canada for over 25 years, starting out when he was only 13. Heavily influenced by his father, Nick, as well as Roy Orbinson, and many others, he sought out the "Lengendary" Truman Merrow as his guitar teacher and mentor. Gary started playing in small bands in Northern Ontario, eventually migrating to Nova Scotia where he fell in love with the people and places "Down East" during the 5 years he was there. Gary finally settled in St. Catharines, Ontario, where he has been running his own successful business for many years. During those years, his music seemed to take the back burner.
Well, no more!
Gary 'K' is back with a vengence, overcoming all obstacles and once more amazing audiences with his vocal, guitar, piano and foot pedal prowess. Aside from working and performing, Gary also takes time to record and produce other artists in his home studio, where creativity runs rampant. Gary 'K's creativity also runs rampant on his own tapes "Walk Out The Door", which was released in 1991 and "Old Port Dalhousie" which was released with Joey Nino in 1999. Anyone who has had the opportunity to speak with Gary knows that his love of music, hard work and perserverance has made Gary 'K' what he is today.
For the last seven years Gary 'K' has been collaborating with Joey Nino. This partnership has proven to be very electrifying. They continue to entertain audiences of all ages and pursue their talents with original recordings. He continues to reside in St. Catharines, Ontario with his wife Audrey and their dog "Teddy".
