When it comes to long distance train trips, few people expect live entertainment on board. While this is the case, Gigi Love is considered a Rails and Trails Troubadour participating in a joint program between the National Park Service or NPS and Amtrak. For, the young singer songwriter often sings songs on-board different Amtrak routes.
Gigi's observation and experience in the parks is what gives the artist's songs a special meaning and message. For, it is during visits to the park in which Gigi pulls most inspiration for different songs. In fact, some of these songs now grace an album titled National Parks Centennial Songs.
Later, the singer-songwriter performed on four different trips in the Summer and Fall of 2017. While visiting several National parks, the artist once again thrilled travelers with acoustic guitar and vocals. Whereas, on this tour, Gigi also performed in a number of the parks.
The folk artist writes songs which are honest, bluesy songs which tell stories depicting the singer songwriter's dreams, vision quests and travels. In most cases, songs which enrapture audiences by taking listeners on a musical journey. As a born and raised Dallas, Texas girl, the singer songwriter began singing and playing the guitar at 7 years old. Then, when Love was 12, the singer began performing at a number of well known venues in Texas.
If the artist sounds familiar, it is most likely due to a televised appearance on the Winter Olympics, or having opened for David Matthews at the Columbia River Gorge. Following Love's performance at the Winter Olympics, a local label picked up the artist. After which, Gigi toured areas west of the Mississippi and Texas, appearances which has led to airplay on college and community stations around the country.
The singer-songwriter debuted new work at the New England Regional Folk Alliance's Susan Wollenberg Folk DJ Showcase in 2016. Whereas, the artist has also toured alongside Utah Phillips' son, Kate McLeod, Duncan Phillips and others. In fact, one of Utah's songs, "Going Away, " performed by Love is now available on Pandora radio. Whereas, there are also a few videos on YouTube which provide a brief history and music by the artist.
Gigi has also graced the stage of a number of national folk festivals. The festivals at which Love has performed include Kate Wolf, Moab, Nedfest, Arise and Desert Rocks. Whereas, more recently, the singer songwriter has opened for the likes of Tim Reynolds, John Gorka and Christine Lavin.
Love's ultimate mission is to preserve the valuable resources found inside the National parks and the National Park system. For, while the singer-songwriter loves to write and perform, the ultimate goal is to protect the parks.
