Ron,
Paul and Jay are 3 integral players
that stand beside Gina and bring her vision to life and stage. Ron Labriola
(Lead Guitar), Paul B. Siegel (Bass), Jay Nova (Drums) and Gina (Guitar/Vocal)
have been playing together for over a year now.
All members have there own unique style, professionalism and experience that
give much depth to Gina's songs.
RON LABRIOLA
Ron has been lead guitarist for Gina's band since the beginning. Ron recorded
with Gina on one of her songs from her debut CD and since has recorded on
all tracks of her upcoming release The Betamax Sessions.
Ron started playing guitar at a very young age taking in classic rock and
a lot of his parent's tunes. He was born and raised on Long Island, NY. With
Neil Young, Mike Mcready (Pearl Jam) and a mixture of Jerry Cantrell and Billy
Corgan Ron created his own style of playing. Ron as of late has been venturing
into electronica bringing a more intellectual sort of noise that truly intrigues
and enhances Gina's music.
PAUL B. SIEGEL
Paul began his musical career as soon as he was able to hold up an instrument.
Born and raised in Middletown, NY he studied upright bass and other instruments
through school and his Uncle whose guitar credits range from Debbie Gibson,
Madonna to Whitney Houston. By the age of 16 Paul had been to Europe and back.
Paul started in Gina's band by lending a melodic bass riff to one of her songs
on her debut CD and has recorded and played live with her ever since. Paul's
style is downright Motown with influences from all genres of music. Being
a songwriter himself and in multiple projects his talents seem effortless,
endless and a major addition to Gina's sound and vision.
JAY NOVA CASTRONOVA
Jay is our seasoned player. He has been banging on the drum since he was a
toddler. Studying with Norman Grossman, Charlie Perry and the great Joe Franco
(Twisted Sister, Taylor Dayne and Jack Bruce) Jay's timing and individuality
is impeccable and the sexiest part of Gina's band. Jay came along right before
Gina's debut CD was released and since has recorded on all recent tracks and
been a staple figure for the band.
Jay was born and raised in Queens, NY he has shared the stage with many great
artists (T.C. Kross-Capital Records, The Fame Band and more). His influences
include Simon Phillips, John Bonhom, Cindy Blackman and Bobby Rondenelli.
Jay's inventive solid drum patterns bring much life and groove to all Gina's
songs. http://www.jaynova.com
Jennifer Glennon
- The Live Back Up Singer
Jennifer our new back up singer for live shows came to us 3 weeks ago and
has been spun into a whirlwind of travels and quick vocal learning of Gina's
harmonies. She has proven to be an amazing professional talent. Being close
for many years Jen has always wanted to sing with Gina, and one day finally
took the plunge and said bluntly "I would like to sing with you - I know
I can do it." Impressed with her sweet confidence Gina invited her to
a rehearsal, was blown away and knew this was a voice that would compliment
her like no other.
A trained vocalist Jennifer through out high school has taken lead parts in
theater and done off Broadway singing. With live performances being key in
an artists career we are honored to have such a beautiful songbird bring Gina's
studio harmonies to life.
