When it comes to musicians, there are those that only play for fun, and others who are extremely dedicated to the genre. One of these individuals is Gigi Love, a woman who is currently working on a project at National parks around the United States. As part of the project, Ms. Love will be visiting a number of parks in Western states, then writing songs about the community, beauty and nature during each stay.
The work in this area is all about the singer's passion for the National parks while currently attempting to host a performance at each one. One of the first songs created by this artist is that of Yosemite Gold, a song about visiting Yosemite National Park near Sacramento, California. Whereas, Sequoia and others are also on the list.
After purchasing a mandolin from a rock climber, Gigi wondered into a meadow and wrote a song. It is during this time Gigi started the National Parks Songs project. One which, has now been in existence for the last ten years. Since that time, Ms. Love has been working to expand the initial sampler into a full length album.
The new album clearly reflects that doing so was a good idea. For, now in the studio, Ms. Love is working on the full-length recording, one which will reflect the history, iconic scenery and natural aspects of park settings. Due out in December 2016, Gigi is anxious to get the word out about this new and exiting project and release.
The artist loves to commune with nature, learn about history, especially as related to the National parks, and meet with community members. Often, those camping and hiking in the parks become part of a community during each visit. When it comes to songwriting, Gigi tries to write stories within the lyrics which are often unique in style and tone.
Whether the three song CD which has already been made available, or the upcoming album, the material is only a taste of what is still to come. For, the singer has only visited a portion of parks up until this point and time. As such, it will take more visits, more fans, more friends and more songs before the project is complete. After which, the artist will most likely come up with another plan based on beauty, history and nature.
The singer-songwriter has also opened for the David Matthews group, and performed at the closing ceremony at the 2002 Winter Olympics. Prior to, and since these earlier performances, the singer-songwriter continues to play a number of different venues in Salt Lake City, Utah and around the country. In doing so, the artist has shown an in-depth love for singing and songwriting, while often drawing large crowds at shows.
The ultimate hope is that these songs will inspire others to get out and visit these great parks. For, if citizens and tourists do not visit and use these green and rocky spaces on a regular basis, these natural resources could likely be replaced by commercial operations. Some of these endeavors include, fracking, mining and other operations which are not only a detriment to the parks but also the health of those living in, or visiting the area.
