Details:
Gary Pfaff is an Atlanta based singer/songwriter that has a knack for writing songs that stick in people's head after just one listen. As if his last name wasn't a giveaway, Pfaff, was born in Germany and moved to the states settling into his hometown market of Atlanta, GA.

Gary decided at age 17 that his path in life would be 100 music. After graduating highschool he landed some high profile opening gigs including a tour with Edwin McCain. A few years later Gary Pfaff was voted the Best Artist In Atlanta by area fans in the Atlanta local music awards.

A few years later, Pfaff found himself in a very interesting place. He was just married and about to become a father. During this confusing period Pfaff received a call that would change his life and sound in ways no one expected. Gary was hired to write and produce the music for a 90 minute rock opera/movie, The Ladder. Singer/Songwriter turned producer all in a matter of minutes. Pfaff found himself working with as many as 10 musicians at a time and that made Gary want to expand his own sound and he set out to form a band.

The band is now known as Obsession Day and has been touring extensively after rave reviews of their debut release. The band has opened for such artists as The Goo Goo Dolls, The Counting Crows, Candlebox, Sister Hazel, and Cowboy Mouth; as well as shared festival appearances with artists like Train, Pink, Aqualung, and Nickel Creek. While O Day is a hugely successful venture and will continue to be, Gary still had a stock pile of songs that needed to come out and local indie label BFM Records was ready to back him in the process. After signing a limited deal with the label he hit the studio to record his first solo record in nearly 6 years.

The album entitled, White Stars, is sure to spread like wild fire as online fans have already been virally spreading the word about Pfaff and White Stars. Tracks to look for are: Perfect, Innocent, and the crowd favorite, Naked - a song that so eliquintly hits home with anyone that has ever been in a relationship. This highly anticipated release comes out August 29th. Pfaff is currently preparing to tour in support of the new release and has already given fans of Michael Tolcher, Tristan Prettyman, and Sandi Thom a sneak peek after recent opening dates.
