Gia Margaret

Every artist has to discover their voice. Gia Margaret didn’t find herself until she lost hers. With

a vocal injury that kept her from singing for years, she developed other musical languages,

mastering the grammar of an intricate, homey form of ambient music pioneered by Ernest

Hood and perfected by The Books. The two largely instrumental albums the Chicago pianist

and composer made at that time—2020’s Mia Gargaret and 2023’s Romantic Piano—allowed

her to lose herself in the emotional possibilities of pure sound. Now, her physical voice healed

and her artistic voice honed, she comes full circle with Singing, her first vocal album since

2018’s There’s Always Glimmer. Led by soft piano lines that fall like breath on glass, the music

on Singing evidences the same jeweler’s sensitivity to detail that she developed in her silence.
