Gary Tu
About Me
[Gary Tu] has a clear, crisp tone, without any fusion or rock effects, and he's a fine one-note picker, adept at finding new melodies. And he swings. - Cadence Magazine
A clever and pleasing guitarist, Tu is a nice change up from an atmosphere filled with guitarists who want to be the next Al Dimeola. He obviously realizes that good tunes and good playing are a nice combination to strive for, and he succeeds quite well in this first solo venture. Look East is a worthy addition to your jazz collection, as well as leading one to keep a watch on this artist as his career progresses. - jazzchicago.net
2 out of 3 stars! - Jazzwise Magazine UK
...be confident at your craft and make creating good music your goal. Gary Tu has done
both. He plays guitar with confidence and skill of guitarists like Wes Montgomery and
Charlie Christian, and he has created a beautiful body of work, Look East. -ABYSSJazz

Tu's 2006 CD, Look East is a very cool instrumental jazz guitar album in the finest spirit
of guitar greats like Pat Metheny, Mike Stern and Bill Frisell. -20th Century Guitar
