Gary Washburn(2011) BIOGRAPHY OF GARY WASHBURN Gary Washburn grew up and attended public school in Skiatook, Oklahoma. He was very active in music, taking piano lessons and playing in the school band. However, his original career goal was to be in Veterinary Medicine. But, along the way his brother, Kent (also a graduate of Skiatook HS, class of 1960), got involved in a dance band called The Shadow Lake Eight. Gary was very enthusiastic about what his brother was doing, and practiced and learned the piano parts for that performing group. He was sitting in, and subbing as piano player in the group before he was even old enough to drive a car! By his Junior year in High School, he had become the main piano player for the Shadow Lake Eight, and performed regularly with them throughout his Junior and Senior year in High School, plus went with them each summer of 1963 and 1964 to play at Rockaway Beach Resort in southern Missouri
