Gary Go: More Than Just a Pretty Voice


Why Dance Music’s GRAMMY Nominated New Singer is Much More Than Meets the Ears

In 2011, the name Gary Go has become synonymous with dance music anthems and dubstep mega-hits.  Catapulted to the forefront of the scene with Benny Benassi’s “Cinema” (which Gary wrote and sang on) and the subsequent GRAMMY nominated remix from Skrillex, Gary Go has toured the globe as dance music’s vocal darling.  Watch him perform his latest collaboration with Benassi “Close to Me” which is currently #1 in the UK club charts.

But despite his presence in clubs and dance halls around the world, Gary Go is much more than a guest vocalist in a string of pop hits.  He’s a multi-talented artist and songwriter whose lush, introspective pop songs and soulful style have more in common with artists like James Blake, Twin Shadow and Blood Orange than with chart topping dance singers.

Gary is ready to let loose his creative side on his upcoming new album Now Was Once The Future.  The album features Gary’s new version of “Cinema” which transforms the song into a spacious down-tempo ballad and features guest vocals from Carina Round.  Download the new “Cinema” single HERE (feel free to post and share).  Gary is also migrating towards more pop-conscious collaborations, lending his vocals to The Knocks’ new single “Magic” which is lighting up the Hypemachine charts.

With the release of “Cinema”, Gary Go has established his own sound and musical identity.  After experiencing so much success in the hands of other world-class producers, the new version of the track gives the world a glimpse of what Gary Go is all about.  Lush vocals and heartfelt lyrics decorate the vacuous yet pristine production of the track, which is rooted more in English bass music and pop than house and electro.  With his unique style and rich voice, Gary Go is set to become one of the most in-demand breakthrough artists of 2012.
