Gary Lenaire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gary Lenaire (born 1967) is a writer, guitarist, and vocalist. He has released 12 records and has been nominated for six GMA Dove Awards.
In 1985 he co-founded Christian thrash metal band Tourniquet with Ted Kirkpatrick and Guy Ritter. In 1996 he left Tourniquet. Guy Ritter formed a new Christian band known as Echo Hollow and he asked Gary to be the guitar player. In 2000 he put out unreleased Echo Hollow songs on the CD "The Lost Years". In 2001 Gary started another Los Angeles rock band Cripple Need Cane, and recorded "The Big Dance". In 2006, Gary and former Tourniquet members Victor Macias and Erik Mendez, began working on new material under the name "2050".
As evidenced by his recent writings, Lenaire has turned away from the Christian faith. He has written various essays, but Lenaire does not consider himself an atheist. Lenaire's philosophical position is Naturalism. A self-published book by Lenaire, "An Infidel Manifesto: Why Sincere Believers Lose Faith", was released in October 2006.
He has also worked for Boss making demo videos of their pedals, such as their ML-2 Metal Core Distortion, with guitarist Johnny DeMarco.
