About

SamGary grew up on a large farm-ranch in southern Alberta, Canada, with lots of horses, hunting, hockey, friends, and a whole lot of work. One of his earliest passions was music which was never far from his dreams and always a part of his goals. After leaving the ranch, he started a construction company and built grain elevators, pontoon boats, and many other things, but he always found ways to do more music.

SamGary's gift is definitely evangelism, and for the past 30 years he has been involved in planting churches, ministering in prisons, working with inner city missions, organizing youth teams to help the helpless, working a halfway home for hurting kids, smuggling bibles into communist countries, doing concerts all over America, and offering folks hope for their future.

SamGary maintains that life is not about him, but rather his greatest fulfillment comes from knowing he's made a real difference or contribution to society, and has a hand in making someone else a success. He declares that his ultimate success in life will be when he hears the words; "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of the Lord."

True living is to have a clear conscience towards God and man, and to leave a legacy for those behind. God Bless

Chris Roach

Biography

Chris Roach grew up ten miles away from where The Beatles began. There was no shortage of musical heritage surrounding him. However, his heart was always a million miles away, favoring the fiddle and steel guitar twang sounds to his rock 'n' roll roots. This young man from Warrington, England eventually made his way stateside working as an audio engineer and gigging nights in Saginaw, Michigan. He then made his way south, landing for a brief stay in Nashville, Tennessee and eventually moving to Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

Today, every note and every chord serves as a mile marker along the path of Chris' journey. The progressive and edgy sound from nearby Detroit, the laid back swagger of Music City, and the swampy soul of the Shoals all permeates his music. Chris has shared the bill with such as Gretchen Wilson, Carrie Underwood, Shenandoah, Shooter Jennings, Doug Stone, Craig Morgan, and even 80's rock band Warrant.

In his time off stage Chris has had the opportunity to work in the studio alongside veteran session players such as Larry Byrom (Steppenwolf), Roger Clark (Steve Miller Band), Mike McGuire (Shenandoah), and Bob Wray (Willy Nelson, Ray Charles). Recently, Chris signed a writing deal with LML productions, co-owned by Muscle Shoals session-player Marty Lewis and song-writing legend Billy Lawson.

When he's not out gigging or working in the studio on his up-coming album, Chris can be found collaborating with some of Nashville's top writers, building his song catalogue.

Aaron Shell

Biography

Aaron Shell was born in the small town of Emmetsburg, Maryland. After his dad passed away when he was at the age of five, he, along with his eleven siblings moved to a farming area deep in the mountains of Virginia. In every spare moment he managed to steal, Aaron could be found fretting around with those six strings. He has always had a passion for music and wanted to use his gift for others. He and his brothers spent their growing up years picking bluegrass every chance they got. Aaron says he can remember driving people insane as he practiced.

"I think I played "Just As I Am" at least as much as five Baptist churches put together."

After leaving home, Aaron joined up with a few bluegrass bands and traveled around playing as an acoustic rhythm guitarist. Today he is part of the SamGary Band, bringing rhythm and backup vocals to the show. With his love for music, he has composed some of his own music and is always into everything that revolves around that.

In his own words; "Music is such a big part of my life that if I had to chose between seeing and hearing, I’d pick hearing. I can play with my eyes closed. But I’m glad I have both."
