Performinig all over Southeastern and Central Massachusetts, Cape Cod, and Rhode Island, her sound and songs are a rootsy combination of rock and folk which reflect her love of the many artists who have influenced her...James Taylor, The Allman Brothers, The Beatles, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Carole King, Stevie Nicks, Alanis Morrisette, Norah Jones, Hall & Oates, Simon & Garfunkel, Journey and so many more. Gay's original music pays homage to these artists through her unique lyrics, observations, and reflections from many different influences in her life.

In Her Own Words:
"I can't remember a time while growing up that I wasn't writing something. I wrote my first songs when I was about 13 years old. They weren't very good of course, but they were mine. My parents bought me a beautiful guitar when I went to high school and I kept all of those songs in its case. It was stolen a few months later and I probably should have been very upset about that guitar, but the only thing that really mattered to me were those wonderful, awful songs. Not every song is a masterpiece, but they're all little pieces of you."
