Originally formed in 2015 for a performance at Underneath The Stars Festival, Gary and his band have steadily been performing shows at venues and Festivals across the U.K and beyond (including a sell-out performance at York Barbican in December 2024) for almost a decade.
2026 marks the 40th Anniversary of Graceland and the York-based troubadour and fellow musicians are gearing up for a busy year commemorating the anniversary, delighting audiences old and new with the beloved South African rhythms, melodies and harmonies that made this Album a universal classic.
