Biography

-2014-

Critically acclaimed singer-songrwiter Gina Sicilia traveled to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to soak up the Southern Soul vibe and realign her musical compass for THE ALABAMA SESSIONS. This self-produced 5-song EP is Gina's fifth release with the VizzTone label group, featuring her powerful, sultry vocals over five brand-new original compositions.

Here's what Gina recently had to say about it...



" I am on the verge of releasing my fifth CD, "The Alabama Sessions." Actually, it is a 5-song EP, and incredibly special and important to me for so many reasons, one of which being that it's the first CD I produced entirely on my own.

And that's a big deal for me.

Amidst the hurricane-intense roller coaster ride that was this past year, I packed my bags and moved from Philadelphia to Nashville by myself to start a new life. Though scary at first, I have fallen in love with Music City and am so happy with my decision to relocate to such an amazing place.

Back in January of this year I had the opportunity to travel two hours south of Nashville to Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where I recorded "The Alabama Sessions" at The Nutt House Recording Studio in one magical, exciting, and gratifying weekend. This experience was like no other. I brought in five new songs I had written--all deeply personal in their own way, and all vastly different from any music I'd written or recorded in the past. Each musician involved played and sang their heart out. I left Alabama that weekend holding in my hand, what turned out to be my declaration of independence, and a symbol of triumph and survival.

This project means the world to me, and then some."
