Thea Gilmore

Thea Gilmore has been performing for two decades and has produced fifteen albums. A musician that has gone through many phases, she has a truly unique style that is both uncompromising, and honest. A gifted singer-songwriter, best described a folksy and political yet edgy Neil Young, who manages to have both a ’70s and current era feel to her music. She plays both with her guitar and without. The gig was a family affair with Nigel Cronier (who happens to be Thea’s husband) as the warm-up act – one of the best I have seen. If you haven’t come across Gilmore you’re missing out.
