New Facebook Music page started

For those interested, there is now an official Gary Wicks Music page started on facebook. You can stream MP3's, see new photos from the road and get those shorter than blog yet longer than tweet updates!

Sorry I slept on the news!

Hi folks! So sorry that I've slept on the news blog page here. It's been real busy in the last year or so touring and gigging and practicing and recording. Not to mention I am trying to get my 21st century web persona caught up! I had to Tweet about my Facebook so MySpace could connect YouTube! Oy....

Anyways...the last year's highlights include: recording on The Manhattan Transfer's latest studio effort entitled the Chick Corea Songbook; playing with Chick Corea in Perugia, Italy when he sat in w/us at the Umbria Jazz Festival; Regina Carter sitting in with us at the Vienne, France jazz festival; hanging with Victor Wooten at the Montreal Jazz Festival!

In addition to the performing highlights I have also been busy acquiring a few new endorsements! I am now endorsed by Eden Electronics Bass Amplifiers; with the string company D'Addario, with the Kala Ukulele company's new UBass; with Charlie Chadwick and his amazing Chadwick Folding bass, & with Reunion Blues gig bags.

So, excuses aside, it's been busy and I will make am effort to update here more often. Till next time....
