My professional work started on drums at age 15 with local cover bands and my first original band.

My own experience started with an early obsession for musical knowledge at age 5. It's been not only for a focus on performing on stage, but on education, instruction, musical history, and on the writing, production, and on the creative side. I teach from a unique multi-instrument point of view in relation to composition, application, and even to listening, and of course spend lots of time on technique and practice routines. I am an honors graduate from Musicians Institute, and following my time at the Percussion Institute of Technology have studied with countless studio greats and touring musicians. The largest impact on my whole experience has been the years spent on the road, touring and performing original music, most of which was as a long term band member, co-founder, writer role. The business has changed so much in just a few years but I have dealt with record deals, contracts, lawyers, trademarks, copyright, publishing, international media and radio, promotions and publicist companies, and the legal end in my work. My musical time is now largely spent writing, recording, and producing for MusicSpeak, and only for select outside projects. I've been instructing with the crew at VERMONT ROCK CAMP (www.rockmusiccamp.com) since 2007, have conducted exclusive workshop programs at area schools, HOWARD CENTER in Burlington with talented special needs children, and have been expanding the Musicspeak Education Program to be available for students in new areas.

"Gary Williams' inventive drumming is the highlight. He plasters his beats with staccato double kick flurries and aggressive hand/foot combos that turn every song into a rhythmic tour de force" (From Modern Drummer print magazine)
"MusicSpeak is the project of versatile multi-instrumentalist and music educator Gary Williams. Clearly, from a spin or two, Williams precision and
skillfulness in song composition and musicianship is self-evident." (From Classic Rock Society print magazine)
