GENRE(S): Acoustic
Formerly one half of The Dear Janes, Ginny has spent the last few years working on her first solo album, ‘Hold On Tight’. ‘Hold On Tight’, is a collection of witty, wry, melancholic songs predominantly co-written with her regular writing partner Pete Smith. The wicked humour within Ginny’s lyrics is matched only by her ability to make a grown man cry; there’s something heartrending in her gentle vibrato and delicately husky cry. It is little wonder, therefore that the likes of Billy Bragg, Robyn Hitchcock and Ian McLagan have been seduced into sharing either stage or studio with her. These are songs that continue a tradition that has drawn Syd Straw to co-write and Emmylou Harris to sing her work.
