Gary Capelouto is a self-taught musician and songwriter who began his professional music career in 1972 as a member of Gairz & Jairz, a music group based in Athens and later Savannah, Georgia USA. 

After the breakup of the group 10 years later, Gary began his solo career in the 1980s by recording experimental piano compositions with Intergalactic Recording Company under the name Gabriel Louteau. One piece, The Suite: Return, is written for ballet, the theme of which is the cycle of peace and war. Another, Experiment on Black, is played entirely on the black keys of the piano. Lost at C is a piece about dealing with a crisis in one's life and overcoming the storms—like being in a life raft lost at sea. It is in the key of C, and all of the movements have nautical themes.

Gary also started recording his original pop/rock songs as a solo musician beginning in Amsterdam, Holland in 1983, and was the subject of the 1985 documentary, The Recording of “Who Is the Savage?” Playing music under the name Geronimo, he recorded several albums in which he performed the vocals and instruments, including rhythm and lead guitars, piano, synthesizer, percussion, bass, and drums. Several songs, including “Yes Sir, No Sir” and “Young Executive,” received college and alternative radio airplay in the U.S. and Europe. 

Following his Geronimo recordings, Gary spent the following years improving his musicianship on all of his instruments along with intense periods of songwriting and composition. He also began raising a family and working on old house restorations.

Gary is the author of the book The Music Interviews: A Bloody Yank's Memoir of Sorts, along with his fictional interviewer and alter ego, Hufferington Root.  

Gary's latest passion and music project is PipeDream, in which he plays extended electric guitar instrumentals with theme-based melodies that encourage creativity and improvisation. He is also in preproduction of a new documentary/performance film, PipeDream. Filming will take place in Atlanta and Savannah, Georgia.

Besides playing music and writing hundreds of songs, Gary has also been a children's storyteller over the years. He has written a number of children's books under the series title Papoo Gary's Tales of Childhood Adventure!

He lives in Atlanta, Georgia with his wife and two children, along with their popular dogs Missi Sippi and Oopsy Daisy Capelouto and their chickens Luna, Pitter, and Patter.
