Gina Volpe Biography
Prolific NYC-based guitarist/songwriter/fine artist Gina Volpe, is back with Delete the World, her full-length debut as a solo artist. Delete the World is a brooding, textured, experimental web of songs with echoes of indie pop, post punk, new wave and heavy rock.
Volpe started her storied career in high school when she co-formed the ferocious 90’s punk band Lunachicks with her fellow high school classmates. Over the course of more than a decade, a half-dozen albums and countless world tours, Lunachicks staked their claim in rock ‘n’ roll history replete with a tell all memoir published in 2021 and a new documentary about the band premiering in November 2023.
While Volpe is known for inciting headbanging with her frenetic guitar solos, Delete the World proves that she’s a true musical nomad at heart. The album’s 13 tracks are a disintegration of not just traditional stylistic borders, but also mental ones. Songs like the title track, “The Plan,” and "Escaped From the Lab" reflect on coping mechanisms gone awry and the unintended consequences, how perception can either cut you loose or keep you confined, and the dubious assumption that humans are in control of anything.
In a world defined by boundaries, Volpe’s music transcends limitations, inviting listeners to embrace chaos and uncertainty.
