October Moon

Gail Wade's music is an evocative mlange of Americana, bluegrass and blues. Her interpretations of the classics are fresh and her original songs are beautifully crafted. For twenty years she has performed on stages in the U.S., Ireland, and Europe. She has toured as a member of The Hot Flashes, as a duo partner with blues guitarist Brooks Williams and as a side-musician with singer-songwriter Gary Ferguson. In recent years she has stepped to the forefront, recording Journey, her debut CD. In 2007 The Greater Hartford Arts Council chose Gail and her CD, Journey as the feature of their prestigious United Arts Campaign. As well as performing solo, Gail currently tours with her own band Turning Point featuring some of CT's finest acoustic musicians. 2011 finds Wade with a new release under her belt. 'October Moon', a self produced release featuring five original tunes and six cover tunes, features heart felt vocals and stellar musicianship. Accompanied by such talented musicians as Brooks Williams, Mike Auldridge, Emory Lester, Kene Hyatt and Gail's own band Turning Point, this sophomore release is already getting rave reviews. Bluegrass Now Magazine says, 'Gail's voice is sultry and mischievous and calls her a musical force. From CT's Vanilla Bean Cafe to the Gettysburg Bluegrass Festival, the Netherlands' Big Bear Festival to Denmark's Pack Haus, Gail's guitar work and wondrous voice is enticing.
