• 13 ALBUMS RELEASED IN ONE DAY

Singer / Songwriter / Producer / Choral Composer & Arranger

On 30 January 2026, Gitika Partington released 13 albums -130 songs  in a single day, sending them out like a large flock of doves, with absolutely no regard for the social-media advice to drip, drip, drip.

The songs grew from an ongoing practice of writing one song a week, through good times, travesties and all the bewildering ordinary bits in between. Together they became The Twelvefold Project – a gloriously genre-wandering body of work moving through folk, electronica, lo-fi pop, a cappella and wherever else the songs decided to go.

“Expansive, daring, deeply personal, and defiantly communal.”
Angie Ingrams, Fatea

And the project is still unfolding.

An accompanying Twelvefold book is now being made -bringing the 130 songs into another form through handwritten words, recitations, artwork and photographs, contributed by a large and wonderfully varied collection of friends and friends of friends Part songbook, part art book, part archive of shared making.

The hope behind all of it is simple: make the thing. Make it imperfectly, abundantly, strangely. Don’t wait for permission. Just do it !

As a producer and vocal arranger, Gitika has created multi-layered vocal work for Comedy Central, Sky Cinema Germany, Warner Chappell and Peer Music, as well as for independent artists. She works in Logic Pro and Sibelius and has trained in audio mixing with Berklee.
