For Los Angeles-based artist Geena Gangi, the May 2nd release of her single In the Movies is more than just a new track—it’s a heartfelt pitch for mainstream recognition. With the music industry’s ever-shifting paradigms, such creative endeavors have the power not only to redefine one’s career but to also take listeners on a memorable journey. Rooted in the whimsical desire for fairytale romance, Gangi’s track encapsulates the innocence and longing we all feel for love stories laden with cinematic allure.
Co-written with Josh Zegan and produced with an indie R&B flair, the single masterfully balances layers of emotion with a boppy beat. “I asked myself this question while in the studio with my co-writer, Josh: What does longing for a fairytale love story sound like?” Gangi reflects. “What we ended up creating is a boppy indie R&B tune with just enough innocence and whimsy,” she adds, boldly merging her fresh, Indie R&B sound with echoes from the past.
Originally hailing from Middleton, Massachusetts, Gangi’s artistic palette is colored by a fascination with Old Hollywood, which she plans to rejuvenate within mainstream culture. Her aesthetic ambition marries elegant nostalgia with her distinct genre-spanning sound. As an independent artist, she stands steadfast, negotiating potential label deals while striving to maintain authentic artistic expression.
The song captures a vivid spectrum of emotions, the kind that resonate with youthful dreams and daytime musings. It’s an invitation to all who yearn for epic tales of love—encouraging them to find those narratives in their own lives. As Geena Gangi’s In the Movies begins its ascent into the public consciousness, it does so with a heart full of cinematic ambition and a melody that lingers like a lover’s promise.
