About the artist

Gary Husband

Gary Husband: The Unsung Hero of Jazz Fusion In a world where flashy guitarists and smooth saxophonists often steal the spotlight, Gary Husband has carved out his own unique niche as a keyboardist and drummer extraordinaire. With a career spanning over four decades, Husband has worked with some of the biggest names in the industry, from Allan Holdsworth to John McLaughlin. Husband's musical journey began at the tender age of four, when he first sat down at a piano and discovered his innate talent for creating beautiful melodies. By the time he reached his teens, Husband was already a seasoned performer, wowing audiences with his virtuosic keyboard skills. But it wasn't long before Husband's restless energy led him to explore other musical avenues, including the drums. His double-threat abilities on both instruments quickly caught the attention of his peers, and before long, Husband was in high demand as a session musician. Despite his undeniable talent, Husband has always remained humble and down-to-earth, preferring to let his music speak for itself. His minimalist approach to composition and performance has earned him the respect of critics and fellow musicians alike, with many hailing him as one of the unsung heroes of jazz fusion. With a discography that spans over 20 albums, including several solo efforts, Husband continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the world of instrumental music. Whether he's laying down a funky groove on the drums or weaving complex melodies on the keys, Gary Husband is a true master of his craft, deserving of all the accolades that come his way.
