GARY FARR (PIANIST, COMPOSER)

MANY THANKS TO SECRET FORMULA RECORDS

Pianist and composer Gary Farr has produced and recorded on several different records and CD's. LOST being the first jazz CD released but not the first to be recorded. Gary and his quintet performed and debuted the LOST CD at Sunfest in Palm Beach Florida back on May 1, 1999. The original band started recording in 1995. One of Gary's last projects as producer and musician is the successful smooth jazz CD "Up All Night" featuring saxophonist Ron Fattorusso released in 2004. "Movin' Thru LA' will be released in late April 2007. "As a pianist I have been inspired by many jazz greats. To name a few; Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea and Thelonious Monk. As a composer, I have been influenced by jazz, classical, pop and film composers from Bach to the Beatles, from John Coltrane to John Williams. Music has been in my blood as far back as I remember. I enjoy writing different styles of music whether I'm playing the music myself or writing for other musicians. With today's computers and technology a composer's boundaries are endless. Music writing continues to be exciting and challenging." "Be love, give love and love will find you. Anything short of love is time prolonged." Gary
