Kristy Gallacher Live @ the Troubadour, London 23/06/09



Kristy Gallacher's long awaited Debut album is out now.

Kristy Gallacher a singer/songwriter from Coventry. Having graduated with a Music Composition degree from Coventry University in 2008, Kristy has supported, Scott Matthews, Glynn Tilbrook (of squeeze), Nerina Pallot, Nate James, Polly Paulusma, Ben Arthur and Nizlopi. With acoustic songs of life, Kristy continues to Play............

"Channelled an amazingly tender singing voice, Kristy Gallacher songs of bitter-sweet heartbreak stand her out as one of the best singer songwriters in London." - Troubadour - Earls Court, London

"KRISTY GALLACHER - A solo singer/ songwriter from Coventry who's silky tones compliment her magical songs to produce an artist who is surely set for big things. You may hear some likeness to KT Tunstall or Suzanne Vega but we think even with these big name sound-a-likes she stands out as an individually talented and classy act." - TML - London

"The reason Kristy is one of Coventry's most talked about artists is quite simple - She's brilliant. !" - Dayle Crutchlow - Coventry Evening Telegraph.

"It's good to see Coventry music thriving again and most impressive are the songs of a talented young singer songwriter - Kristy Gallacher. Her songs all tell an evocative and heartfelt story with great wit, ingenuity and rhythm. I was truly blown away with them and the new full band versions on her album (some of which can be heard on Kristy's My Space) are astounding. Go check them out and buy her album - it's must-have!" Trev Teasdel - Hobo - Coventry Music On-Line music magazine.

"Kristy Gallacher has a fantastic voice and a fantastic collection of songs - all brusied,streetwise defiance. Singing in a voice like crushed petals she managed to do what the very best songwriters do - let you glimpse her soul and see yourself reflected in its surface." Jack - The Bomb Factory

"A truly sensational talent." Ben Turner BBC West Midlands Radio - Birmingham

"Beyond doubt a enthralling, enthuastic songwriter." Jimmy Franks

"Coventry's freshest acoustic folk lyricist." Colour@Quadrant Lounge
