Video: Saratoga Sunrise by Sunup
It's no secret, if you've been following our news/blog page or Facebook postings, you know that Garry has quite a long running history with his affection for horses, from having friends who owned horses, assisting friends with care of their horses and being introduced to horse racing in 1978 and meeting Hall of Fame horse trainer, Woody Stephens, back in 1988 (see Woody Stephens story below). One of his passions is photographing horses and some of that work can be found in video tribute to Woody and also, the latest music video, Saratoga Sunrise. He is not shy about introducing people to the world of horse racing and now is involved with partnerships that own thoroughbreds. So, what do songwriters do? They write songs about topics they're passionate about, and with Garry there is no exception.
Garry has been working on a solo album project for well over a year. The pandemic played a role in slamming the brakes on the project, as there were many musicians and vocalists that he wanted to include on the recordings. Things have started up again, but this is how it's rolling, "I really wanted to get more of the recording down during the summer, but I stayed longer in the Adirondack Mountains than I originally anticipated. But, it was well worth it on many levels. Lining up the musicians to record doesn't always fall into line as easily as you think it might, so it's looking like instead of a Fall 2021 release we may be looking at Winter 2022. I'm very eager to have the music out there! Two tracks are available on the streaming platforms."
There is the possibility of another single and new video being released before the album is completed. Be watching our Facebook page!
