Gary Cain is a Canadian-born, UK-based guitarist, singer, and songwriter with one foot planted firmly in the blues, and the other foot planted in seemingly everything else.
Drawing on a wide range of influences from Albert King to AC/DC, Cain’s incendiary fret-work earned him an opening slot with blues-rocker George Thorogood, a Semi-Finalist finish at the International Blues Challenge, and main-stage appearances at major festivals across North America, Europe, and the UK.
His 2022 album Next Stop received widespread critical acclaim, and was called “a stunning tour de force of musicianship” by Blues Blast Magazine (UK). 2024 saw the release of his 3rd album, Outside The Lines, charting on the UK’s Independent Blues Broadcasters’ Top 40 albums, reaching over 150k monthly followers on Spotify, and further staking out his own style and artistic voice.
In 2025 Gary moved from Austin Texas to England.
