Gallie
Friday August 26, 7.30pm


“One of the outstanding releases this year….The Occoquan River is brilliant.”
 
….Paul Gough, The Inside Sleeve, ABC Radio National.


"The Occoquan River is one of the best songs of the year-Australian or International"
….Brian Wise Off The Record, Triple R FM

"Every track on The Occoquan River is carefully yet simply crafted, as if each has come to him effortlessly, organically and fully formed. The crown jewel of the album is the title track: a truly haunting, mournful piece."
….Lukas Murphy, theMusic    ★★★★☆

Surfcoast artist Gallie has delivered a brilliant release in The Occoquan River. At first, it sounds like easy to hear folk music but combine this with a killer story and you have the masterful art of Gallie and the Occoquan River
….Tex Miller, Forte Magazine

"this is the kind of music adored by Americana music fans"
….JEFF GLORFELD, The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald
 
Tom Waits once said “The world is a hellish place, and bad writing is destroying the quality of our suffering;” the very same Tom Waits who then went on to vote Gallie as a finalist of the International Songwriting Contest. In the short time Gallie has called Australia his home, he has crashed into the gate of the Australian music industry's consciousness, with approaches from Renee Geyer to cover his own song “Anybody Seen My Baby,” Stephen Pigram recording his song Look Away (Walking Blues), plus he got a standing ovation when he nailed Hurricane before full houses at Memo's Bob Dylan Festival "Bobfest" with everyone wanting to know his name. He lit the switch board of ABC Radio 774 with his remarkable live performance of his song “The Occuquan River,”on The Richard Stubbs show. 
The indelible character and emotion bestowed upon a particular generation of songwriters, at the hands of a 1970's Dublin childhood, is transcribed into song with no more lucidity than in the current works of Irish born singer songwriter Gallie, who now calls Melbourne his home.

Gallie's new album titled "The Occoquan River" echoes the influence of legendary Irish forefathers such as Van Morrison, and extends a warm handshake to American soul and blues ambassadors such as Bill Withers, while contributing his own colour to a significantly rich canvas.

Today we are immersed in noise, and surrounded with distraction and insincerity for the most part, yet the voices of authenticity are plentiful in the underbelly of the music world. You needn't scratch the surface too far to unearth one, and Gallie stands brazen amongst them.
