Gary Burger

Actor

Gary Burger was an American musician and frontman of the 1960s proto-punk band The Monks. Originally formed in Germany by American GIs, The Monks were noted for their distinctive sound and appearance, which included shaved heads and dark, blunt schedules. Although primarily recognized as a band member rather than an actor or director, Burger's contributions to music, especially with The Monks' album "Black Monk Time," have left a significant mark on the garage rock and punk genres. The album didn't receive mainstream success upon initial release but has since achieved cult status and influenced numerous punk and alternative musicians. No significant films or acting awards are associated with Gary Burger.
