Gary has been a lifelong Queen fan and has always been a keen singer. His career as Freddie started in 2000, when his wife and his mother secretly applied to the Granada TV show Stars in Their Eyes. Gary won the overall Live Grand Final, and is now featured in the programme video, CD, and book. He has also represented in the UK on Euro Stars In Their Eyes.

After the television experience, Gary performed as a solo artist but immediately started to receive rave reviews and was encouraged by the audience reaction. Therefore, in 2002, he created One Night of Queen and formed his band, The Works.

Since then, the band has consistently performed over 150 shows per year in a variety of countries. Gary was personally invited by Brian May to attend the Queen & Paul Rodgers show in Cardiff and was thrilled to be introduced to Brian after the show. 

Gary has recorded various voiceovers for radio, television, and computer games. He has recorded an album of original material with long-term songwriting partner, Barry Kelly, called "Blood, Sweat, and Beers."

On the road, Gary enjoys lifting weights and practicing yoga, but enjoys relaxing at home with his family and two dogs when he does get time off!
