Review

An emerging force in today's young rock and roll poet scene, Gina Young is a Washington DC native who currently tears it up in NYC. Gina has been making her mark on the east coast and has become a staple on the college circuit, playing her music and speaking her mind with characteristic acuity. Comparisons have been made to Ani DiFranco, Liz Phair, Le Tigre and many other talented women musicians, but Gina is a complete force on her own and her growing fan base can sing all the lyrics to prove it.

Gina's folk and punk influenced vocals on her 28 Days Records debut, Intractable, slide easily from soulful longing and beautiful harmonies to brash, bratty rants that are equal parts fun and furor. She embodies multiple characters - songs like haunted and can she bake a cherry pie? evoke the raw, dark quality of early PJ Harvey; fire, fire and surrounded are reminiscent of the riot grrrl movement; touch and turn the lights off are intimate, tender and breathtaking. Nursery rhymes, activist chants and TV static all become part of the cut and paste that makes up Gina's passionately feminist, unabashedly queer, young-at-heart yet world-weary musical vision.

With the talent of producer/engineer Hillary Johnson (Ramones, Tribe 8, Bonfire Madigan, Misfits, Jeff Buckley, etc) and a diverse posse of indie female musicians on backup (Katy Otto of Del Cielo, Michelle Williams of Paprika, Kathi Ko of Morgan Storm, Tracy Dicktracy and activist Marisa Ragonese), these multiple influences coalesce into a signature aesthetic that is raucous and riveting. Intractable is captivating - dynamic, elastic, and full of promise.
