Singer/Songwriter/Musician, Gary Whitehawk, was born in Littlefield, Texas, also the hometown of family friend Waylon Jennings. Remembering when Waylon would come to his Parents home and pick and sing, brings back many good memories." We were both kids, " said Gary, "but Waylon was older than me." He was born on the 15th, and me on the 16th, I guess that made us pretty close in tears if we didn't talk about the difference in the years ".
Raised in Lubbock, Texas, hometown of Buddy Holly, Mac Davis, and a host of others from this area of West Texas, such as Roy Orbison, The Crickets, a Sax player by the name of Bobby Keys, who toured and recorded with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, just to mention a few. Gary bought his first car from Peggy Sue, the girl Buddy sang about. Being exposed to many genres of music he naturally tried to copy all the sounds. "They gave me my style, now I'm standing in the aisle, playing my music for you. " Playing Country music, Blues, and old Rock and Roll he developed a Unique Style of his own.
He sat aside music for many years while raising a family, but the music would never leave him. Today all his time is devoted to his music, and he will soon share it with his upcoming CD.
