Born: November 26, 1941 in Detroit, MI, United States
Original guitarist for Ian & Sylvia Tyson's band Great Speckled Bird (1969-1970).
Garrett would then record and tour for American vocalist Maria Muldaur (his solo graces her biggest hit "Midnight At The Oasis"). This association led to work with Geoff Muldaur on an album in 1977.
Garrett released his first solo album 'Go Cat Go' in 1980 on Stony Plain Records. He would continue a long association with the label for many albums.
