Kezia Gill is returning with her unique sound to The British Country Music Festival this September
Kezia Gill Biography
Midlands based Singer/Songwriter Kezia Gill, has been singing professionally for over 15 years. Born in Nottingham to a large musical family of Irish descent, her early years were spent surrounded by music. Her father, a professional musician for over 50 years and her single biggest influence, introduced Kezia to the world of performing, writing and most importantly, the vast back catalogue of music that has shaped her individual style. Pulling influences from a wide range of genres including Folk & Irish, Country, Rock and Blues, her sound is completely unique. She performs all over the UK, as well as the world, including previous shows in Europe, Australia and America. Her individual and uncomparable style is not only evident in her original material, but laced throughout her wide repertoire of classic covers. With her impressive vocal range, energy on stage and multi-instrumental talent, she makes every song her own.
2021 saw Kezia making up for the lost time of the pandemic. She released her award winning EP ‘The Mess I Made’, and recieved her first iTunes Number 1 single with ‘All Of Me’. With live music back on the agenda, she performed some incredible shows including a headline set at ‘Buckle and Boots Country Festival’, her own live theatre show at Leeds City Varieties, and an intimate show with Bob Harris. She was also able to finally hit the road, and completed both her own co-headline Tour with fellow Country singer-songwriter Jade Helliwell, and as support for The Shires on their UK Acoustic Tour. Another hugely successfull year was wrapped up with Kezia winning 3 British CMA Awards for Best Album (The Mess I Made), Best Song (I’m Here) and Best Entertainer.
2022 is already shaping up to be her best yet. With Takamine Guitars announcing Kezia as one of their artists, her success shows no sign of slowing down. Her recent successful performances at Country to Country Festival at the O2 in London led to Kezia being snapped up by Global Talent Agency Wasserman music, joining a roster of artists including Leanne Rimes, Lewis Capaldi and Jack Savoretti (to name but a few). With the songwriting ability of a country artist, the stage energy of a rock star, and the voice of the blues, one thing is for sure….. What’s coming next from this exciting artist is definetely worth sticking around for.
” Nothing beats doing what you love for a living. The fact that people keep supporting me means I can live my dream every day”. – Kezia Gill
