Gabriella Cilmi

Gabriella Chilmi was born in 1991 in the suburbs of the Australian city of Melbourne, in a family of immigrants from Italy. Already at an early age, the girl began to take an interest in music, and her favorite bands and performers were already "not fashionable" for a long time, but from this no less great T. Rex, Led Zeppelin, Cat Stevens and others. Among rock singers, Gabriella was especially impressed by Suzi Quatro and Janis Joplin. Although the girl had a clear vocal gift, relatives told Gabriella that she could not be a singer. Despite this, Chilmi did not stop her musical activity and as a result, at the age of 13, in 2004, she was noticed by an employee of Warner Music - he heard Gabriella performing the Rolling Stones song "Jumping Jack Flash" at a street festival. Shortly thereafter, Gabriella visited the United States and Britain to sign a contract to record her own material. The girl had to consider several offers, and in the end she made a deal with Island Records.
