Singer-songwriter Gina Zollman is on a tear. She’s just been nominated for Vocalist of the Year (Adult Contemporary) at the 2025 Josie Music Awards—one of the biggest honors in the indie music scene—and she’s dropped a new album that lives up to the hype. Originals, a 17-track collection of deeply personal, genre-mashing songs, is Zollman at her raw, fearless best.
Set to take place this fall at the legendary Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, the Josie Music Awards celebrate the best in independent music across all genres. Zollman’s nod is a major milestone in a career built on reinvention, risk-taking, and a voice that cuts straight to the heart.
“To be nominated in such a strong field—and at this stage in my journey—is honestly overwhelming in the best way,” said Zollman. “Originals is the most honest work I’ve ever done.”
Produced with longtime collaborator Kevin Fisher, the album weaves together adult contemporary, jazz-pop, and modern folk into something uniquely her own. Standouts like “Any Road You Choose,” “Heartbreak Highway,” “You,” and fan-favorite “Garden Grove, California” show off Zollman’s signature blend of lyrical grit, wry humor, and emotional depth.
The release coincides with her acclaimed ORIginaLS live show—a one-woman, cabaret-style performance that’s been earning standing ovations at venues like The Gardenia in Hollywood and the Arthur Newman Theater in Palm Desert. Equal parts concert, memoir, and storytelling masterclass, the show is Zollman in her element: vulnerable, bold, and totally unforgettable.
A former corporate exec who walked away from the boardroom to follow her creative instincts, Gina Zollman’s journey is a reminder that it’s never too late to raise your voice—and mean every note.
Originals is streaming everywhere now and available on Amazon.
