Gary Lynn Floyd is an American singer-songwriter who connects straight to the heart with his soulful style.

A native of Houston, Gary began picking out melodies on a piano at four years old, and he's been making music ever since. Today, he writes deep and meaningful music and shares these songs to audiences across the country. His style is a mix of pop, rhythm, and blues, combining silky vocals with powerful lyrics.

It is Gary's openness to divine inspiration that fuels his endless supply of musical ideas and creates his inspirational lyrics. That's the light that shines through his performances. With his piano, Gary is a catalyst for positive change and raises the collective vibration through his music and his welcoming presence on stage.

Gary brings to his musical performances the culmination of a life's work. From early roots in gospel and jazz to stage and screen acting to his recent one-man show "When Gary Met Harry: The Music of Harry Warren", Gary draws from a deep and eclectic well of talent and experience

Unanimously, critics and fans alike respond to Gary with open arms. As examples, the Global Women's Empowerment Network selected Gary's "Unbound" as its theme song. The CW Network Television Series, TroubadorTX, featured Gary among celebrated Texan singer-songwriters. Also, his critically acclaimed EP, The Gospel of Zen, was nominated for three 2010 OutMusic Awards, including Album of the Year.

Harriet co-wrote all the songs for "The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking," the animated "Secret Garden" and Universal’s “The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus.” Her songs have also been featured in numerous other films and TV shows, including the current Emmy-winning PBS series, “Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks” for which Harriet co-wrote the theme song with Geoff Levin.

Harriet has written the theme song and score for Henry Jaglom’s film, “Going Shopping,” which premiered on September 30th of 2006 and later released on DVD. She also wrote music for Jaglom’s “Hollywood Dreams,” starring Tanna Frederick, released in 2007.
