Gary Dranow
It is fair to say that there is an adventuring spirit within Gary Dranow that is persistently looking for new possibilities and undertaking fresh adventures. The same can be said for the Park City, Utah based artist’s music that explores, evolves and never stands still.
Born in Santa Monica, Gary’s musical journey began the moment, at the age of 11, he heard “Crossroads” by Cream on the radio. It was an encounter that sparked a realization that he wanted to be a guitarist, that acknowledgement and intent further brought to life the following day with his mother taking him to the Ernie Ball guitar shop. Within a year, he had started his first band, The New Invaderz, and his musical voyage, like his guitar collection from that first Fender Stratocaster, has continually grown and embraced a rich variety in its adventure.
Similarly, his entrepreneurial prowess has been centered by instinctive enterprise, Gary notably founding Spoiled Brats of California, a garment manufacturing company, a mortgage brokerage company and developing and selling Cyborg Information Systems, a fully automated mortgage process software.
As across a host of other projects and collaborations with musicians such as guitarist Chris Zoupa in their new EDM project Astralix and Ukrainian singer-producer Klim Apalkov, Chris persistently pushes his boundaries and landscape of enterprise with “Never Give Up” for one, a highly rewarding adventure for creator and listener alike.
