working across an extraordinary range of genres. His roster spans contemporary folk (Chuck Ragan, The White
Buffalo, Fantastic Negrito), folk-punk (Flogging Molly, The Front Bottoms, Gogol Bordello), punk rock (Rise Against,

Schuster, and supported nonprofits such as Diverse Books for All and First Book, extending his impact into
education and literacy.
At the heart of his career, Gary is driven by a simple belief: music and food have the power to bring people together.
