Folk singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson was born in Hollywood, CA, the daughter of folk-pop singer/songwriter Terry Gilkyson (1916-1999). Her father wrote and recorded “The Cry of the Wild Goose,” which Frankie Laine covered for a number one hit in 1950, as well as the 1953 Top Ten hit “Tell Me a Story” recorded by Jimmy Boyd and Laine.

Growing up in Hollywood, Eliza sometimes sang on her father’s demos and soundtracks along with her brother Tony Gilkyson, who later became a member of the rock bands Lone Justice and X and performed on her records.

Eliza Gilkyson’s Beautiful World is one of the best folk albums of 2008.
