Fronted by our favourite flame-haired eccentric English singer/songwriter, Gabby Young and Other Animals are back with special guests, surprises and new songs.

Gabby Young was on track to become an opera singer until Jeff Buckley and the jazz greats inspired her to switch teams. When thyroid cancer threatened to take her classically trained voice at the age of 22, she got serious about recording her stories. Using her recovery time to pen her melodies, Gabby took in global influences to fuel her heartfelt emotion, which shines through her beautifully haunting songs.

 Young's avant-garde fusion of globally-influenced folk combines Balkan brass, jazz and swing in an aural antiques shop from the future to produce what has been affectionately dubbed Circus Swing by those who realised there was no existing genre to encompass Young's sound.

The debut album, “We're All In This Together” topped both Amazon UK's folk and rock download charts during June 2010 as part of the 'Storm the Charts' campaign. Positive coverage appeared in many of the UK's major newspapers, including The Guardian, The Sunday Times and the London Evening Standard.
