The Worst Kind of Way presale it now!

About Me

"...An undiscovered brilliant vocalist..."
Ventura Reporter
"...Gibson boldly breaks the mold of untalented, young female artists playing generic, pop songs..."
Santa Barbara Independent
"She has a classically trained voice that soars with ease, and sobs a little on the way down."
Ventura County Reporter
"Delaney is an AlternatiVIXEN!"
Chris, Give 'em Hell Kid Productions
"...Solid songwriting with hook-filled choruses and tasteful harmonies..."
www.radioindy.com
"Gibson is a twentysomething singer-songwriter...with a voice big enough to fill arenas, but she has a quirky sensibility. It is less American Idol and more Radiohead..."
Ventura County Reporter
"...The vocal performance is incredible! I got chill bumps...Killer!"
TAXI - the worlds leading independent A&R company
"A blend of piano-based pop...and sultry edginess makes Delaney Gibson the real deal."
Santa Barbara Independent
“Gibson has not only mastered the guitar, piano and vocals, but she writes all of her own songs as well, making her a quadruple threat.”
Mustang Daily
"Gibson charmingly admitted that her version of “Such Great Heights” was actually based on Iron & Wine’s acoustic version, so it was actually “a cover of a cover,” but in truth her powerful acoustic version gave both previous examples of the song a good run for their money."
Ventura County Reporter
“When Delaney began singing at the show the other night, I was sitting near the back and people around me were talking...about five notes into her first song, a hush fell over the place and you literally could have heard a pin drop.”
Sandy Jacobson, Producer for BackStage:Los Angeles
"L.A.'s REAL T.V. Musician-Interview Show!“

A voice filled with honesty, allure, and grace defines the
electric vocals of Delaney Gibson.
Fronting a new breed of music with substance and style, she weaves intricate melodies with acoustic rhythmic piano and subtle vocal harmonies. Her debut album "The Worst kind of Way" is a fine tuned mix of electric and acoustic instrumentation. It is proof that Delaney is quickly becoming one of the most fascinating artists of her generation.
Not only has Delaney earned the respect of fellow musicians, but the VC Reporter has described the budding singer/songwriter/multi-
instrumentalist as “…An Undiscovered Brilliant Vocalist…”She has been honored by sharing the stage with many well-known artists including: Barbara Streisand, Barry Manilow and Andrea Bocelli. Delaney was chosen to be one of a select number of performers invited to the 2007 Sedona Jam Emerging Artists Music Festival in Sedona, Arizona and a semi-finaliast at the Winery Music Awards in Paso Robles, CA. She recently received some great publicity when her EP was featured on the cover of the February, 2007 Discmakers Catalog! Even though her list of accomplishments is long and astonishingly impressive, Delaney never ceases to amaze. She has guest starred on the Fox show “Boston Public” as a singer and dancer and MTV’s “My Own.” Delaney was given an honorable mention and received near perfect scores by the Billboard Song Contest for her songs “Turn My World Around” and “Unattached.” It is amazing to see how this independent artist has accomplished so much
at such a young age.
Her sultry, classaically trained, powerhouse voice and intense songwriting have led her to walk off with such prominent awards as solo vocal finalist at the Eisteddfod Music Festival in Wales and Best of L.A. Singer / Songwriter Finalist. She also won Four MAVRIC Awards for “Best Alternative Song,” “Best R&B Song,” “Vocal Performance of the Year,”and “EP of the Year!” She received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music from California State University, Northridge. She continues to study and perform Opera. Delaney is also a proud member of the Screen Actors Guild and ASCAP. She has just finished her
Debut Album "The Worst kind of Way" to be released Summer of 2008
Delaney is a truly gifted musician with enough originality in her songs and sound to set her apart from the glutted music scene. Her music transcends genre and evokes happinessand heartbreak. She allows the listener to become actively engaged in songs of independence, love, mortality, and whimsy, transporting the audience to a
world of sincerity and beauty.
“Beautiful is boring and perfect is never polished.”
- Delaney Gibson
