Gary Holmes: News

The Vineyard Christian Community knows how to enjoy a summer evening.

It was a pleasure to perform 3 songs as a part of this special event. The songs were:

1. Thank You Jesus
2. Cross House Night
3. Only Until

Thanks to all of you for visiting this website. In the song "Only Until", Flora is a homeless woman who lives in a camper at the park in the night time. Her ambition is to start an errand running business. Therefore, she will be running some errands every day, daily in the day time.

Genesta Garden is a song about professional musicians working in their home studio. It's a place where music grows, and it's also located on "Genesta" street in the Valley near Saticoy and Balboa. I had the pleasure of recording an album there.

Genesta Garden
by Gary Holmes



Behind the house there are lemon trees

Besides the garage there's a pool

In the backyard they keep laundry clean

A green street quiet and cool


Genesta Garden where music grows
and nobody ever knows
when a song will arrive again
or the time that day comes and goes

Not too far from Hollywood

And miles away just the same

Working inside for an open door

until the world knows their name

Quest for fame and fortune

All the things that they do

Just to make another song

A song to sing just for you


Genesta Garden where music grows
and nobody ever knows
when a song will arrive again
or the time that day comes and goes

Music inside is a quiet mind
Words so new yet to find
Stories set to pitch and time
and somehow it all rhymes

Genesta Garden where music grows
and nobody ever knows
when a song will arrive again
or the time that day comes and goes

It was a honor to sing "Thank You Jesus" at Price Chapel AME Unity Day.
