Gary Wright
BORN: April 26, 1943, Creskill, NJ
Most closely associated with his atmospheric 1976 smash "Dream Weaver," singer Gary Wright was a former child actor who appeared on Broadway in a production of Fanny. He fronted a number of local rock bands during his high school years before turning his attention to psychology, completing his studies in Berlin at Frei University.

In 1967, Wright's band the New York Times brought him to the attention of Island Records Chris Blackwell, who in turn introduced the singer to the members of the band Art.

Relocating to London, Wright joined Art, soon renamed Spooky Tooth and later emerging among the UK's premier hard rock outfits. When Spooky Tooth temporarily disbanded in 1970, Wright formed Wonderwheel, and at the same time played keyboards on George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. Gary and George became close friends and collaborators, together taking a trip to India which inspired the mystical themes of Wright's subsequent solo efforts. He returned to Spooky Tooth in 1973, but when the band again dissolved the following year he returned to his solo career, scoring his greatest success with 1975's The Dream Weaver; both the title track and "Love Is Alive" reached number two on the Billboard pop charts, and the album, one of the first created solely via synthesizer technology, achieved platinum status. Follow-ups including,' Light of Smiles'.

1977's, 'Touch and Gone', and 1979's,'Headin' Home', failed to repeat The Dream Weaver's success, however, and in 1981 Wright notched his final chart hit with "Really Wanna Know You," from The Right Place. From there he composed a series of film scores, including 1985's, 'Fire and Ice', which topped the German charts.

Gary's first solo album in seven years, Who Am I featured contributions from Indian classical greats Lakshmi Shankar and L. Subramanium. In 1991 he remade "Dream Weaver" for the soundtrack of the hit film comedy Wayne's World, and in 1995 issued his first world music effort, 'First Signs of Life', with,'Human Love' following five years later.
