Gary Richard is an singer/songwriter in the Americana vein of John Prine and Tom Petty.
His writing rests in numerous branches of roots music, including country blues, pop and ballads and old school R&B .
The songs are short and to the point. The 4 piece rhythm section is expanded with a variety of instrument textures.
Take a listen to the uptempo old school R&B of "Ain't No Fool" with horns by Freddie Reiter of the NY Ska-Jazz Ensemble.
Also the blue grass in "Get Me Out of This Mess" featuring the mandolin of seasoned sessionman Paul Prestopino.
And the rockin' country within "Plastic Money Man" with banjo and dobro by Paul Prestopino.
Not forgetting the short pop and jangling guitars of "Love Needs No Explanation".
And lastly, sweet "Christine" and mood ballad "Waterfall of Love".
13 lucky songs in a little more then 30 minutes.
