GARY FORSYTHE
Originally from Wichita Falls, Texas, I now live in Franklin, TN.. I came here to be a songwriter first, then a player. Prior to my Tennessee adventures, I’d done a variety of “other things” besides music. I managed a radio station, was a worship leader, worked as a pro-audio consultant and met many of my musical and spiritual heroes along the way. I’ve had some songs published here in Nashville (kids music & choral), all of which have either been recorded and/or put in print. Still, I work a day job like most aspiring musical dreamers.
Simply put, I write songs and I play music. Music is one of my three great passions in life, along with God and family. I view life from a Christian/philosophical perspective, and tend to write songs that say something important with lyrics that are honest, vulnerable and contemplative From my point of view, life is too short and the world is incredibly needy. I want to make a difference with my art so that I’m missed when Im gone. I’m not a wealthy man but I’m blessed. I’m married to a great woman and have two fine boys. it’s good to be alive
