Gia Ford

Pairing swaggering guitar licks with sumptuous vocal melodies & a delicate ear for songwriting, Gia’s planned something special for us on her debut album.

How often do we hear from the outsider’s perspective? For Gia Ford, those figures on the fringes of society are by far the most fascinating. Her songs tell the stories of the downtrodden to the down right dangerous. And through them, we begin to hear familiar, uncomfortable truths about ourselves. 'Transparent Things' is about alienation.

“Most of the characters in these songs are outcasts, all with unique ways of feeling on the periphery, somehow,” Ford says. “I’ve discovered, through the grouping of these songs, that I’m drawn to this sort of story.” While each song operates in its own realm, their subject matters create a throughline of eccentricity that turns 'Transparent Things' into a kind of odyssey of outcasts. “'Transparent Things' isn’t a concept album, but I think I have always been drawn to darker subject matters,” she says. “We’ve all gone through a period of not understanding why we feel a certain way, or having the sense that something is missing in our lives. We’ve all felt like outsiders.” - Gia Ford.
