Gina Forsyth
You Are Here

"In one of the best independent or small-label
submissions from a regional talent we've heard in
a way long time, New Orleans' Gina Forsyth rips
it up on You Are Here, an eclectic, beautifully
played testament to choosing the right personnel
and crafting a great song. "
- Walter Pierce, The Daily Advertiser, Lafayette, LA

"Forsyth's debut is truly one of the warmest
singer-songwriter recordings in recent memory.
May this girl go."
-Dan Willging, Offbeat

A favorite singer-songwriter of Dave Carter, Rose
Polenzani ("no one makes me feel as consistently
fabulous as Gina Forsyth"), Kate McDonnell, Chuck
Brodsky, Leslie Smith, and The Sons Of The Never
