About Gary Helms

GET TO KNOW GARY!

From the hot-spots of east Texas and southwest Louisiana to the traditional toe-tapping dance-halls of central and west Texas, Gary Helms has played to standing room only audiences and kept them screaming for more.

Few artists have made such and impact on the Texas country music scene. Nonstop touring and professionalism have made him one of the most in demand country artist in Texas.

Gary was launched into the International spotlight in 1993 when a song "Rainy Night In Texas" became a fan favorite in Europe peaking at #2 on the European Charts for four weeks and staying in the top 20 for an amazing 15 weeks.

He also started getting air play at many Texas radio stations as well with "Rainy Night In Texas" and "Daddy Don't Leave" both songs he penned himself along with co-writer Jim Rowland a former Texas Black Gold band member.

Gary currently has songs on the radio in Belgium, Germany, France and the good ole... USA.

Gary and Texas Black Gold received a few accolades in February 1994 when he was featured in the 93Q Country Radio Magazines (Houston Rodeo Edition) as a regional fan favorite.

Gary has also been one of the feature artists at the Houston Musicians Re-union for the last five years, a time when the stars really do come out at night.

Gary grew up in North Shore, a small town 15 miles east of Houston. With country boy charm, good looks and manners, Gary is an icon of respect. Though his passionate love of the stage has already provided him opportunities to perform for fans across the country, his heart remains true to Texas.

His roots and respect for the Lone star people run as deep as the state's seemingly bottomless mine of platinum talent.

You know…   This is an all too familiar story   It ain’t Goldie locks   And it goes a little something like this...     (hit it)     She was sitting the front seat, in her bare feet   She was sweeter than candy     I would’ve liked to had a good line, something so fine; it would have really been handy   She had a pretty little blonde head, and I said; would you like to come inside?   She nodded her head no and said “let’s go take me for a little ride”     How was I to know what I was about to get into   That girl was…     Trouble with a capitol T   The trouble with that is that she really liked me   I never met someone who turned my head like that... (head like that…)     I should’ve known in an instant, my resistance; was being lowered on the double   She wasn’t just sexy and sweet…   She’s trouble…     Aw… but wait… there’s more to this story     (again…)     She told me i know a little bar… well it ain’t far…   And the drinks are real cheap there     She said she knew a bar tender… a real contender…   That goes by the name of Bear     A set up if there ever was, I should’ve knew because   It was too darned easy     When we got there her buddy Bear took a wooden chair and tried to wrap it around me   She just sat there laughing while the whole things going down   She was…     Trouble with a capitol T   The trouble with that is that she really liked me   I never met someone who turned my head like that... (head like that...)     I should have said see ya later, alligator… and cut out on the double   She was just sexy and sweet…   She’s trouble…     Well it seems like every guy I know has had this happen once in there lives   And impulsive as it seems, I grinned with half my teeth   And asked that girl if she’d be my wife…   She was… trouble with a capitol t but I love a little trouble so we got married     I never met someone who turned my head like that… (head like that…)     Her buddy Bear was my best man, yea it was her plan   So we did it on the double   She’s mean and sexy and sweet…     And now…     Life’s full of surprises, everything is…   Kind of crazy like a Bessie bug     We tied a knot in our underwear, and her buddy Bear   Gave me a big bear hug     Bought a Harley for our honey moon, couldn’t buy two   So we rode out on the double     She’s my adventure in life, yea... She’s my wife…   She’s trouble…     I love her though…     I kind of like Bear too…     ha…
