Gaynor Wilson discovered her passion for music during a midlife transformation in 2008, when a spontaneous decision to join a local covers band changed the course of her life. Stepping on stage for the first time was nerve-wracking yet exhilarating, and from that moment she knew that singing would be an essential part of her future.She went on to spend six years performing with George Borowski and the Fabulous Wonderfuls, where singing harmonies alongside George became a masterclass in musicianship and stagecraft. Gaynor later formed her own band, Pretty Eclectic, showcasing her versatility as both a vocalist and violinist.
Her musical journey evolved again when she teamed up with acclaimed songwriter Paul McGladdery. Together, under the name Wilson McGladdery, they spent eight successful years performing at folk clubs and venues across the UK, gaining a loyal following and refining their distinctive sound.
When lockdown brought live music to a halt, Gaynor embraced a new challenge: teaching herself piano to support her vocals. While she has penned original songs, she is best known for her expressive interpretations of covers,ranging from Doris Day to The Cure; infusing each performance with her own unique style. True to her roots, her repertoire remains proudly and intentionally eclectic.
Today, Gaynor performs as a solo artist, something she never imagined when her journey began. Her story is one of creativity, reinvention, and a genuine love for music that continues to evolve with every performance.
