The music of
Gary Cornelius comes from the heartland of North America. For
twenty-five years, Gary has written songs of the common people: songs
of hope, love, sadness, heartbreak, regret and the human
spirit.
His melodies are
unforgettable; his lyrical talent is unmistakable.
International critics have hailed his "first class songwriting" as
"intelligent", "heartfelt", "honest" and, at times, painfully
personal. His storytelling is classic in both content and
style.Gary is a genuine American songwriter who has traveled from his
native Kentucky throughout North America weaving his powerful mixture
of folk and country songs with a vocal style that is best described
as strong, soulful, clean and pleasant.

This is not a slick overproduced, contemporary Nashville country artist. Cornelius quickly dispels this with his "straight ahead", gutsy, traditional folk and country approach that has drawn comparisons to such great artists as Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Paul Siebel, and, yes, even Neil Young. |
