Gin Wigmore is happily married, living in LA and has recorded a new album, Blood To Bone, which documents the latest chapter of her life.

Gin Wigmore is determined to keep her head above water for now.

In a tumultuous couple of years, which involved walking out on an unhappy relationship and then getting hitched to someone else, relocating from Sydney to Los Angeles and using the upheaval as grist for her creative mill, the Kiwi songwriter has undergone several watery baptisms in the name of art for the release of her new album Blood To Bone.

"I had the perfect storm in my personal life to draw from when I started work on the album," Wigmore says, while sipping a cold beer and taking the last call of a busy day of interviews. "You can't always be having breakdowns. Life is a whole bunch of things. There's good, there's ups and downs, there's bad, there's ugly, there's amazing, there's awful. There's a flip side to everything. That's why I wanted the album to be boisterous and also soft and contented, which is where I am right now."

Me? Well, my full name is Virginia Claire Wigmore, shortened years back to Ginny, then with a little more innocence lost, it got dwindled down to an even tidier nickname, “Gin.” I guess my ma & pa were always big fans of a few cheeky G&Ts on a regular occasion, so it seemed a winning fit for all.
The music? It all started rattling out of me around the age 12; can’t say it was all that great, but it seemed to pull a slightly misfit and unclean crowd of around ten folks on a Wednesday night from 8-9pm, so I guess i had some sort of legs. And those legs luckily grew a little bigger, landing me on the mean streets of Sydney after a few rocky and somewhat sinister detours through the west coast of New Zealand baking one too many lemon meringue pies and to the badlands of the party party Gold Coast of Australia. After winning a song contest I ended up with my feet firmly and sensibly held in Sydney. I managed to write a short & sweet E.P., titled quite simply, Extended Play, purely because I wasn’t the savviest kid in the music club and never actually knew what “E.P.” stood for, so I thought I better clear that up for the other rookie vocab musicians alike.
After the E.P. had lived out its life on the shelves of about four music stores and one AM radio station, it was time for me to sign up to play with the big boys and make an album. I was sceptical of this happening due to my highly un-prolific nature. But with the help of a few good men such as Mike Elizondo and Dan Wilson, I was able to make my very first album, Holy Smoke, a reality and take my first step towards global domination.
