Biography

Claudia Gibson’s new album The Fields of Chazy (March 2024) - produced by Texas songwriter Walt Wilkins - features tales of Acadian farmers, female outlaws, Old World immigrants and restless spirits. Claudia’s songwriting has brought her recognition as a Kerrville New Folk finalist, invites to songwriting festivals and competitions, and 1st place in the Woody Guthrie Songwriting Contest. An Austin, Texas resident, Claudia’s musical style runs the gamut of her past musical experience - with folk at its basis, but also including elements of rock, classical, bluegrass, Celtic and R&B - weaving a sound that is identifiable solely as her own.
