Gary “Ju Ju Drum” Garlic is a percussionist who has performed for a living since 1994 when he was hired as a drummer at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. Since then, Gary has shared the stage with legends that include The Temptations, Earth Wind and Fire, and Donna Summer. In addition to performing, Gary is a music teacher who provides private instruction in instruments that include the drums, keyboard, and electric bass. Gary has also been trained through the Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning. Wolf Trap teaching artists partner with teachers and caregivers of children ages four to six-years-old to improve learning through the performing arts: using music, dance, drama, and puppetry to bring literacy concepts to life!
