Thing is, Gina doesn't like to be thought of as 'just another singer-songwriter'.... instead she writes and performs music that is full-on passionate, meaningful, kick-ass, but then again gentle and heart-wrenching...none of this arty-farty nonsense.

Gina has also started collaborating with Dance DJs, including The Thrillseekers with whom she released a trance single called 'By Your Side' in March 2006, which was highly rated and played by the likes of Paul van Dyk, Pete Tong and Armin van Buuren. She is currently collaborating with Riley & Durrant, who have taken a couple of Gina's songs, Hollow and Magnificent Love, and made them...yes.... into dance songs. Hollow will be released as a single in early 2007. Watch out for more 'Gina-dance music' stuff.
