Gala

Singer song-writer Gala has finally returned, this time stronger, tougher, and on her own terms. Referred to by her fans as a “cult dance artist” for her minimalist look and haunting voice, Gala suddenly disappeared at the top of her success leaving behind an air of mystery. Her European dance megahit (“Freed From Desire”) became an international pop classic, selling six million copies worldwide and earning her a gold record in the U.K. and platinum and diamond singles throughout her home continent.

So what was missing? Try Tough Love, the name of her new, edgy and explosive collection that taps at last into her true spirit as an artist. Having found herself locked into a deal with a record company in Europe that left her no control over her music, Gala decided to break free from her constraints and return to the excitement and freedom of pursuing music that she believed in.

Perfectly reflecting the rebellious attitude she’s had since the beginning of her career, she immediately formed her own label, Matriarchy Records, in Brooklyn and set out to redefine her sound. Gala met producer Marcus Bell and electro-punk drummer Deantoni Parks (Kudu), who formed the backbone of her new project “TOUGH LOVE”.
Recording in studios throughout New York, Gala collaborated with producers and musicians from many different backgrounds pursuing a basement “electro-pop-punk” aesthetic. As a result “TOUGH LOVE” is Gala’s strongest and most eclectic work to date.

“They call me crazy and they say I'm unpredictable, I won't play it safe, I'm not that irresponsible I trust that voice that says: everything's possible, people who don't dream are F*****g dangerous” – Gala from “tough love"
