Gillian Harwin: Upright bass LIVE with Dan Zemelman :piano
Gillian Harwin is a vocalist, performer, composer, educator and multi instrumentalist living, breathing and hustling in New York City. She sings with the soulfulness of the 60s, slaps the bass with the funk of the 70s and plays a mean musical saw...all because she must! Gillian knew from a very young age that she wanted to be a singer. Little did she know, all of her dreams would come true...
Influenced heavily by Aretha Franklin, Mahalia Jackson, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder and Prince, Gillian's sound leans toward a gritty Janis Joplin vibe with a twist of Motown and a hint of Gospel. Raw, sensual and soulful, her voice pulls you in with sensitivity and keeps you hanging on with meaningful lyrics and great songwriting.
Gillian Harwin a polyglot, multi-instrumentalist (Classical/Pop/Jazz vocalist, Upright and electric bass, musical saw, guitar and ukulele, drums and percussion, piano, etc.) educator and world explorer. Many say Gillian has lived the lives of ten people, but her calling has always been the music. And so she heeds the call and shares with us her talent, humor and stories to make us all forget about our troubles or worries if only for a moment as we get lost in the groove and feel the body start to move. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride...its all we've got.
