About
Gale started eagerly developing her liking to storytelling songwriting at the age of fifteen. She became intrigued by artists such as Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Van Morrison, and Stevie Nicks (to name a few). Her passion for the written word led her to graduate from California State University, Northridge in 1999 with a BA degree in Journalism. It was then Gale began developing her own unique songwriting style, as her love for the written blossomed.
Mandy Gale has performed solo as well as with full band at Venues such as:
The World Famous Rainbow Room on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, The Cat Club, The Derby, Verity (Topanga Canyon), Harmony Suite (Ventura County), and others since 2003.
