When opportunity knocked, He answered
27/05/2012 : Gary Nock came from humble beginnings in the West Midlands, north of London. He taught himself to play from songbooks at the age of 17 and started picking up gigs in pubs in Devon, before pouring his heart out into his own acoustic offerings, some of which have been featured on TV commercials for brands such as Mars and Arla Ko milk. Having just released his debut album, The Life We Learned to Live, Nock is now gearing up to treat Thai fans to his "confessional, acoustic alt-folk" on Friday at the Hardrock Cafe in Siam Square.
