Born in 1972 and from Shepperton, Middx, Gary Willcox started playing the drums when he was 10 years old.
In the early 1990s, Gary studied orchestral percussion at the Welsh College of Music & Drama, Cardiff, under the tutorship of Chris Stock, Principal Percussionist of the BBC National Orch. of Wales.
During his time there he also had lessons with Pete Fairclough and Keith Tippett who introduced him to the wider world of Improvised Music.
From 2015 Gary has been a member of Loz Speyer's band, Inner Space.
Gary has performed at many of London and the UKs leading venues many times - Ronnie Scott's, The Vortex - and tonight returns to OTO with this new Trio.
