BIOGRAPHY
Who is Gary Fox? I am me, as you are he, or maybe she, but we are all together...

6th RPM album, 10th solo album.

Solo artist, wisearse and general pain-in-the-(insert your favorite body part here)

I am an miserable old man who periodically yells at people. I don't like anything, except sometimes whisky, and only when it smells like peat moss and tastes so smoky it violates local fire codes. I play guitar like I am wearing a boxing glove and the piano with my big toes. (at least, that's what it sounds like.) I think I can write songs, and I disabuse myself of that notion every March 1st.

Why you have read this far escapes me, so perhaps you should rethink your life. While you do that, click play on some of the songs since RPM pays me $50 every time you play a song of mine. Thank you in advance for the cash.

Who am I? Well that doesn't matter much, just listen to the songs. According to a good friend, I have this hybrid style which immediately gives away my influences, but still sounds original. So be it then...

What is it? Well, it's guitar laden with lots of harmonies and hopefully some cool "ear candy" type things. I love experimenting in the studio, but at the end of the day I am just trying to write a song you will catch yourself singing along to.

I have learned that some things can never be changed, only controlled...

28 Days(2006)

RPM 2006. What in the name of all that's good and right have I got myself into? A lesson in how to slap something together in 28 Days. (with a wrecked voice due to illness to keep it all interesting)
