Pop Rock artist Gordy Garris was born and raised in Saginaw, Michigan. At an early age he began singing and playing the guitar. As a teenager, Garris taught himself to play the piano and began composing music at age 16. Songwriting was always a great emotional reprieve for Garris, as he amassed hundreds of original songs by age 20. In 2017 he released his newest album, "Never Give Up."
