PROFILE
Over the course of 13 albums, Eliza Gilkyson has built a reputation as one of the most original and influential folk artists of our time. Her latest release, Paradise Hotel (August 2005, Red House Records), is arguably her best thus far. Gilkyson was born in Los Angeles, where dad Terry was a successful songwriter with hits like "Memories Are Made of This," which Dean Martin took to #1 on the charts, and "Bare Necessities" from Disney's The Jungle Book. Brother Tony spent a decade with influential LA-based punk band X. Sister Nancy chose the business side and ascended through major-label executive ranks. But Eliza had to leave California to define her own path.
