RED HANDED is available at select stores in the UK. It has also been released in France and is available there in FNAC, Virgin and indie stores. Red Handed can be ordered online and posted to anywhere on the planet at hmv.co.uk, play.com, or amazon.co.uk or can be downloaded from iTunes: Gillian Glover..

In the summer of 2005, I was put in a room with a handful of the musicians involved in this project. We wrote and recorded four songs over those four days. Sparks flew and the fire started. 2007 saw the completion of Red Handed, in which I was able to realise the ideas born in the wee hours of the morning hunched over a guitar and give voice to the words that for years were scratched across notebooks and journals.

I also sings in a band called Beat:Root. Check out our myspace too...

***** ''The debut album from Gillian Glover, Red Handed, is a poised yet strident collection that manages to stamp her authority on the singer-songwriter genre, while never becoming bogged down by the constraints of the form...Resonating throughout are Glover's powerful vocals; her voice serves as a most decorative centrepiece to her own self-compositions.'' - ROCKnREEL, July/August 2007

''Red Handed doesn't fall easily into any single category; Glover mixes it up here with some gritty blues, soulful rock and a liberal taste of nu-country. The real common denominator with Gillian Glover is the total commitment to quality - from the moment the pen hits the paper to wrapping it all up in the studio everything's treated with total professionalism and attention to detail. What becomes absolutely clear as you work your way through the eleven tracks is that Gillian Glover is a new solo artist positively glowing with natural talent and positivity. 'Red Handed' no-way sounds like a debut work; it's superbly crafted with everything superbly rounded and styled to make it quite an exceptional piece of work. Glover has a pretty powerful vocal delivery but is able to tone it down when necessary in order to bring out just the right degree of emotion - she's got 'balls', sentiment, style and massive, massive potential!'' - Toxic Pete. For the full review go to toxicpete.co.uk.
