GAILYN ADDIS - Alternative Pop and Electronica
Artist: Gailyn Addis
Album: Self-Titled
Category: Electronica/Alternative
Road Records Catalog #RR5199
Produced by Gailyn Addis and Conrad Askland
Publishing by Askland Publishing
female


The Gailyn Addis self-titled album is truly a unique release for the recording studio Road Records. Imagine the sultry vocal stylings of Chrissie Hynde mixed with urban beats, southwestern flavored guitar work, electronica synth parts mixed with moody yet sometimes satirical lyrics and you have an idea of the sound of Gailyn Addis.

Gailyn is from Los Angeles, CA and has extensive experience as a touring performer and vocalist throughout the United States and Asia. She is one of the hardest workers we have seen at the studio and it really shows in her finished product

She is also featured on the Road Records releases New Faces Volume Two and New Faces Volume Three

Her vocal style has been called a blend of Chrissie Hynde, Portishead & Sarah McLachlan but Gailyn Addis's radio friendly mix of electronica with steel guitars, congas & live drums driven by sensual lyrics with pop hooks and spiritual overtones, reflects the unconventionality and diversity of her past

Having lived in 10 different cities by the age of 17, she became independent at an early age and immersed herself in music. She sang in school plays, choirs, churches, high school bands and a college duo 

During college in Colorado, however, Gailyn sought enlightenment and adventure in Southeast Asia. "Living and working in the Orient changed me. I felt awakened and inspired. I wrote my music and poetry with more depth and clarity than before." Experiencing some of the hardships and spiritual diversities of other countries at times seemed profoundly overwhelming, but for Gailyn proved to be ultimately inspiring and she found herself performing her music in this unlikely environment

After returning to the U.S. and studying voice and dance, Gailyn resumed her travels in Asia--this time as a full-fledged singer, performing in 2,000 seat showrooms, hole in the wall clubs, and everything in between. During one tour in Japan, she worked with classical keyboardist and independent producer, Conrad Askland. The two struck up an instant rapport and began writing together. "With his background in classical and country music and mine in rock and alternative--and," she laughs, "with both of our twisted senses of the world, we're creating in unconventional ways. Sometimes I feel like the music is dictating to me how it should be written, instead of vice versa, and that's very powerful."

And powerful is a good word to describe her music. Gailyn writes of "other-worldly" experiences and unconscious desires in the seductive and ambient Unrestrained, Nine of Swords, and The Witching Hour. Combining a catchy chorus with moody, melodic verses has created a sure fire hit in Best Lie. Not without a sense of humor, she makes fun of her own contradictions in the upbeat Close the Door and Never Looked Good in White. She finds "freedom" in Waters of Babylon, and in the melodic, ethereal Search For Me, she longs for reunion in the afterlife with a departed loved one

Gailyn Addis' debut album ". . . possesses honesty and integrity" and "groundbreaking uniqueness. . . We admire this artist's attempt at something beyond the norm." Music Connection Magazine, July 1999
