Gia

About Me

A voice that quenches your thirst with genuine soul, and a style brewed under sultry flames. R/B and Neo-Soul Singer/songwriter, Gia, is a refreshing cup of talent that warms your spirit and satisfies your heart. Her freshman album, Legacy Lounge, will make listeners crave a Ghetto King, and question MayBe. And with producers like; Taji, Chris Hines, C4, Tall Cole, John Broussard and the late Teno Ballard you will not only thirst her soul, you will experience it. Gia developed her talent at the tender age of nine, when she formed an eight piece band to win a local talent show in Chicago , IL , at Parkside Elementary. Gia’s matchless gift of music is inbreeded in her. She’s the sister of Houston ’s own Mohammad Ali of R &B, Eddie Cain, and the stepdaughter of the legendary Blues Singer, McKinley Mitchell. If you hear a hint of blues in her voice is because of her heavy influence by her stepfather and great artist like Dorothy Moore, Bobby Blue Bland, Tyrone Davis, and Millie Jackson. Gia moved from Chicago to Jackson , Mississippi where her family became a part of Malaco Records family and then back to Houston , Texas . On her journey, she gathered an impeccable resume. Her unique vocal style landed her a gig as a lead vocalist for several local Houston bands and she eventually branched out and toured with several Reggae artist such as; Robert Minot, Melanie Beacher, and the legendary Bob Marley Family for their yearly tribute to the late singer Bob Marley. This vocally diverse sister has a talent to freestyle lyrically with or without music, making a name for herself amongst the Houston poetry scene. She has worked with HoustonPoets.com, and has lent her voice to several projects for poets such as; Quiet Talker, Scef, and Poetic Chocolate. She is also a member of the Artform group. Gia is the epetome of soul and her voice is like cool water flowing through your finger tips. Listen for more of Gia in January of 2007, singing the theme song written by the talented John Hillard to As for Me and My House, a new sitcom which is the genuis of Lionell Hillard. airing on KNWS Channel 51, Gia, Love, Peace N Much Respect!!
