How often do we hear from the outsider’s perspective? For rising new artist Gia Ford, those figures on the fringes of society are by far the most fascinating. Her songs tell the stories of the downtrodden to the downright dangerous. And through them, we begin to hear familiar, uncomfortable truths about ourselves.
Raised between Sheffield and Cheshire after her parents divorced, Ford developed an early passion for both poetry and original songs. “I’ve always loved writing creatively, and poetry is something I do for my own pleasure,” she says. “The two come together quite naturally, to the point that I end up writing these short stories that happen to be set to music.” This culminated in her spectacular debut album, Transparent Things, which was released in 2024 and is a collection of songs that demonstrates Ford’s signature Sheffield swagger, burnished with nods to alt-pop and psychedelic sleaze. Most of all, her debut album shows how Ford is able to craft songs like no other artist of her generation.
