January 2017 Tour Dates 

Hey everyone, 
I hope you're all enjoying this holiday season!

Things have been fantastic on my end, with Sunset Avenue continuing to get played by radio stations around the world. 17 weeks after its release, it's still on the Roots Music Report Chart's Top 50 Contemporary Blues Chart, and recently received several rave reviews by international publications, including this one:

"Beautiful, captivating vocals are the center of attention in Sunset Avenue, the sixth studio release from Philadelphia singer/songwriter Gina Sicilia....Sicilia proves once again, her voice is certainly one to be reckoned with." - Phillip Smith - Philly Cheeze Blues Blog

In the newspaper today!! An amazing response to Sunset Avenue 

I'm so thrilled by the amazing response I've been getting since my 6th CD, Sunset Avenue, was officially released on Blue Elan Records on 8/26/16. I'm truly humbled by the countless kind words from fans on social media as well as from publications around the world. After its first week, the album debuted in the top-15 of the best-selling Blues albums of the week. I'm currently on tour in the northeast promoting the album (all tour dates at GinaSicilia.com/Schedule) and after a great show in Cleveland on Wednesday night opening for Blues-Rock band, Indigenous, I have been greeted in Philly with much love. 
Check out this HUGE article that was printed this morning in my hometown newspaper, the Bucks County Courier Times.

Huge thanks to everyone at Blue Élan Records for getting behind me, to the incredible musicians involved in the project for lending their talents, and to all of YOU for your continued love and support as I begin chapter six in my career.
