Biography

Gabby Young’s twisting path took her from her rural roots in Wiltshire, through life’s tribulations at an early age before combusting in the London music scene, to cause one of the biggest reactions seen in years. Causing a reaction is becoming a habit for the instantly recognisable girl with a petite frame, mane of red hair and the vocal ability of a lioness. Although classically trained, her diverse musical tastes include pop, rock, folk, jazz, funk and experimental and that shines through in every song. Critics are agreed, Gabby Young is a true original. Already overcoming thyroid cancer at the tender age of 22, her voice has been described as having a vocal range that would melt marble at a hundred paces. High praise indeed, but an initial listen to her debut EP will soon have you making similar comparisons. Her commanding stage presence has earned her a fan base that spans a range of musical genres, from folk to antifolk, acoustic trip to jazz. The last couple of years have seen Gabby appear at major festivals such as Glastonbury, The Secret Garden, Marlborough Jazz Festival, Standon Calling and many more. This autumn Gabby will perform a number of live dates in the north west of America, supporting the great troubadour Al Stewart, before boarding a flight to LA to perform solo gigs and finally returning to the UK to in October promote her current EP.

Fresh from selling out the Union Chapel to over 500 people- this innovative, exciting 7 piece bring together gypsy, folk, rock and jazz to create a melting pot of highly energetic, catchy, dramatic songs.

"As the stage filled with a backing band that wouldn't be out of place in a jazz brunch (trumpets, double bass and all). Just to keep it interesting, there was also an accordion filling the room with the sound of a busker on Le Metro. If that all sounds wacky, it's extremely pleasing to say that the music wasn't. It was just really good. Beyond good use of all the instruments on stage, the most important aspect was Gabby Young herself who can really, really sing and when combined with the amazing venue provided and awe-inspiring set. Just because someone can sing and lets themselves go a bit doesn't mean you should just throw the name Jeff Buckley at the page, but this time it feels well deserved. Add in Muse's trick of bringing songs to a cacophanous conclusion, red hair being tossed around whilst accordians are mashed that left listeners feeling thoroughly exhausted and from the raucous approval it left them quite delighted as well. Recommended." Andrew Revell, Disposable Media

Thank you so much for playing for us yesterday. I hope Hops has recovered from his drum trauma, but at least he has the cache of having peed on one of The Strange Death of Liberal England! 
Lots of love,
