'Howling mad and completely irresistible.' - Tom Robinson (BBC 6Music)
FOUR STARS: 'Wildly flamboyant and with a good selection of brassy-backed, jazz-edged songs' - The Guardian
With their unique sounds, flamboyant stage show and incredible musicianship, Gabby Young and The Other Animals have taken the British Isles and Europe by storm. With that beachhead established, the band is now ready to conquer North America and the rest of the world
Gabby was the youngest ever recruit to the National Youth Opera at the age of 12, and was on track to become an opera singer until Jeff Buckley and the jazz greats inspired her to switch teams. Young's avant-garde fusion of globally influenced folk combines Balkan brass, jazz and swing in an aural antiques shop from the future... to produce what has been affectionately dubbed 'Circus Swing' by those who realize there is no existing genre to encompass Young's sound.
Look for Gabby on tour in the US this summer.
