  <description>&lt;p&gt;Gerry has influenced countless young Irish musicians to pick up the bass and has more than earned his place in the pantheon of Irish Giants of bass. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Gerry played with Rory Gallagher between 1970 and 1991, and then with Nine Below Zero until 2011. He currently tours with his own project Band of Friends.  &lt;/p&gt;
