Eliza Gilkyson is tagged as: folk, female vocalists, singer-songwriter, alt-country, country Eliza Gilkyson (born in Los Angeles) has been recording and performing her unique blend of folk, country, and other genres since the late 1970s. She is the daughter of the late Terry Gilkyson, an accomplished songwriter noted for music he composed for Disney. She is also the sister of Tony Gilkyson, a former guitarist for the punk rock band X. She has collaborated with both during the course of her career. She received much critical acclaim for her 2005 release, Paradise Hotel, which contains songs that strike a chord with listeners in light of recent events. “Requiem” honors Hurricane Katrina and tsunami victims with hopeful pleas to the Virgin Mary, while “Man of God” is a bitter, unapologetic denouncement of President George W. Bush and his administration. “The actions of this regime do not follow the teachings of Christ, what I call real Christianity,” Eliza said in August 2005. “I just don’t appreciate the religious right acting like I don’t love God and my country just because I’m not in their corner. I’m mad and I want other people to be mad about this too.” Source: http://www.thisistexasmusic.com/profiles/elizagilkyson.html|... Read More About Eliza Gilkyson Biography...
