It would be difficult if not impossible to find another performer with a history like Gary Dalton. He is celebrating his 60th year in the music business. He started his “surf band” at the age of 13… who’s recordings are still being sold worldwide on “surf compilation albums” under the name “The Velvetones.” It wasn’t long until he decided playing music was his first love and landed a house band status in Hollywood at the famous “Gazzarris on the strip” with his band “Churchill Downs”… from there, he became the leader of the back up band for a major teen idol by the name of “Bobby Sherman” touring nationwide, including a TV appearance on “The Johnny Cash Show” and a tour of Japan playing in the “Budokan.” It was on these tours he met his writing partner… they quickly wrote so many songs they had to put a band together, lacking a name and drinking Strawberry Hill, they called themselves “Boone’s Farm” and in less than a year were signed by the largest record company in the world, Columbia Records.
