Gary is a no-nonsense, powerhouse drummer, who's technical approach kept him a standout musician in 4Jonny. Holding fast to tradition, Gary now continues to rock hard with Spoiled Jonny and promises to not let up 'til those dance floors are jamming! Below are the hard facts on Gary. In both Two Faced and Higher Step, the vocalist was none other than his talented brother Jim Collins (who is half of CT's best duo Jim and James!) The guitarist in those same bands was longtime friend Sonny Parlin, currently of Project Finster. Check out the cool pics and memorabilia for Wake Up Jack down below!
