I'm Gina. I've been part of the Chicago music scene for years, mostly playing in bands like Slutter (an all-female KISS tribute), Venom Lords, and Eastland Disaster. It’s been a loud, chaotic, and unforgettable ride.

Through it all, I’ve always been writing—quiet songs with big feelings. I grew up on country music, and there’s something about it that’s always felt like home. Now, I’m leaning into that nostalgic pull and finally recording a handful of those songs.

New music is coming Fall 2025. Until then, take a listen to some of my past band recordings and videos while I get the new stuff ready. Thanks for stopping by.
