Jazz Guitarist Garry Percell Reworks "Going In Circles" With Tony Terry

In the latest episode of the Underground Magnolia Podcast, jazz guitarist Garry Percell takes center stage with his remake of the classic slow jam, “Going In Circles.” Collaborating with singer Tony Terry, Percell and Terry breathe new life into this timeless song. 

Key Points:

• Collaboration with Tony Terry:  Percell invited Tony Terry, best known for his 1990 hit “With You,” to join him on the retelling of “Going In Circles.” Despite not knowing each other personally, their undeniable musical chemistry shines through in this newest version. 
• Origins of the Song: “Going In Circles” was first popularized by Friends of Distinction in the late '60s. Over the years, it has been reinterpreted by artists like Luther Vandross and Charlie Wilson.
• Sound Journey:  Percell grew up with a musical family that supported his love for the guitar and his 25-plus years of guitar expertise. His biggest artist influence? The legendary Ernie Isley (The Isley Brothers). As a mainstay on smooth jazz radio, Percell wears multiple hats: producer, composer, and sought-after studio and stage musician. His collaborations span genres, including playing with memorable artists like Chairman of the Board and the Betty Davis “Funk House” band. He most recently cut singles with saxophonists Marcus Anderson and Jason Jackson. Notably, Adam Hawley, the best-selling guitarist, produced Percell's “Going in Circles.” 
• Personal Dedication: Percell dedicates this passionate ballad to his late daughter.
• Singles Strategy: Rather than full albums, Percell strategically releases impactful singles.
