Pop-rock musician Gigi Fouquet discovered her musical talent in her dorm room, where the self-taught guitarist would spend hours strumming the strings before relocating to NY from her hometown of Paris, France to pursue a career in music. Now considered a staple at indie-venues throughout Manhattan’s West Village, she’s since celebrated such notable achievements as performing at the College Music Journal Festival and recording her EP with critically acclaimed guitarist GE Smith, of Saturday Night Live, Bob Dylan and Hall & Oates. Her singles “Suddenly” and “You’re the Same as Me” have gained increasing popularity on college radio airwaves across the country, and her music is available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon. Inspired by the likes of Fleetwood Mac and Sting, the female vocalist and guitarist possesses a sultry swoon that’s part Natalie Merchant, part Tom Petty, but results in a hybrid she’s made all her own.
