Gary
"Garp" Alexander
A singer/songwriter
and a storyteller, Garp writes lyrics that resonate with his
audience, much like Dan Fogelberg and Jackson Browne.
Combining richly layered guitar and heat felt lyrics, Garp's music speaks to
the heart and soul of the listener, By connecting to the audience through song
and conversation, Garp feeds the listener a healthy serving of sobering
realism and believable fantasy. Now add truly inspired acoustic guitar
playing, this music transcends normal boundaries and leaves the fans on their
feet screaming for more. More, MORE. Industry executives at Music Row in
Nashville have compared to artists ranging from Hootie and the Blowfish to Bob
Dylan and Jim Croce. Since he didn't fit into any of Nashville's traditional
country "slots", Garp decided to try the down home approach. An
acoustic/electric mix of story telling and powerful music as diverse as it is
entertaining, this music is enjoyed by people who like rock, pop, ska,
country, blues and jazz. "We all have a calling in life, mine is to
entertain, that's when I am most alive" and it shows in the warm crowd
responses. Touring locally while promoting globally is the plan for now. Garp
encourages fans to "take him home with them" (in a virtual sense)
via the internet and free MP3 downloads, as well as the more traditional sales
of tapes and CDs.
