Is Gary Willis ok? Groove A Day?

[Kmrumedy]

I remember in 2014 Gary announced his Groove A Day app that he said was in programming and going to be released soon. Last week I thought I would check out the app since I assumed it must have been out for some time now.

I couldn't find the app so I went his website. Not on the site and his site has not been updated in quite some time.

I couldn't find any very recent vids of him on YouTube but the last videos I did find of him he was obviously very thin.

I started seeing comments that he had suffered a heart attack or he had broken his hip mountain biking. You know.....all kinds of rumour stuff that you don't like to hear.

Does anyone know if he is actually ok? He is my favourite bass player and educator. I sent him a note on his website but never heard anything back.

Also.....Did Groove A Day ever get released?

Thanks.

Maybe he's out baseball cap shopping.

Willis is my favorite bassist too. I saw him late last year at Berklee and he played incredibly well, as always. I'm always shocked there isn't more discussion of him here (as opposed to threads like McCartney vs Entwistle etc).

Please let us know if you find anything out!

GARY WILLIS can be found on SoundCloud, but I don't know if I'm permitted to post a link here to get you there.

Last thing I heard about him was that he moved to the UK - haven't heard much from him in a while.

Groove a day is out. I get video suggestions on facebook all the time.

Gary did some online clinics for onlinelessons.tv in Jan/Feb this year.
As far as I know, he still lives in Barcelona.
And ... he is THE man.
