Born and raised in the heart of Hell?s Kitchen, New York City, Gerry's musical style combines the Soulful sounds of R&B to the quick beat of today?s Latin Swing. His strong and natural tenor vocal range and prolific percussion playing has led him to many a musical accomplishment.
Gerry has opened up for artists such as Marc Anthony, Ruben Blades, La India, and Morris Day & the Time. He's also had the pleasure of performing with Latin Jazz's Hall of Fame Veteran, Pucho Brown, from the well renowned, Pucho & the Latin Soul Brothers.
Signed to the Latin label Musical Productions, Sony/Disco; Gerry released 2 albums as the premier lead vocalist behind the Salsa Pop group, F2F (Face 2 Face). The albums entitled "Amame Una Vez Mas" and the follow up entitled "Espejismo", that combined Salsa with an R&B vocal flavor, solidified the new Salsa Soul brought about by groups like Dark Latin Groove (DLG) and Son by 4.
