Dana Gillespie on David Bowie, Bob Dylan and Morrissey as she looks back on career

Counting music titans Davie Bowie, Bob Dylan and Morrissey among those you have rubbed shoulders with over the years is not a feat many have achieved. And while British singer and actress Dana Gillespie is among those who have worked with and called these men friends, she remains a largely undiscovered secret of the music industry. Born in 1949 and raised in London during a period of artistic rebellion, Gillespie began her recording career as a teenager aged 15.

“I don’t want to be a pessimist, but that’s how I feel.” Produced by Soft Cell musician Marc Almond And Tris Penna, the 11-track record also features a cover of Bowie’s Can You Hear Me as well as her version of classics including Fleetwood Mac’s Dreams and Dance Me To The End of Love by Leonard Cohen. Each track was specifically selected between Almond, Penna and Gillespie to reflect on aspects of her career, which also saw her try her hand at acting.
