A pro, personable, easy-to-work with experience from start to finish. Gabriel (and band, if needed) are intuitive players who can read a room well and provide just the right background music to enrich and enliven any room or event.

When Grammy-nominated producer and composer Scott Healy first heard a collection of Gabriel’s demos and agreed to produce the songwriter’s first record for indie imprint sonaBLAST! Records, Gabriel found himself again surrounded by musical luminaries, as Healy assembled an all-star cast of some of New York City’s greatest session players and special guests. His debut, “The Exile of Saint Christopher,” featured legendary drummer Shawn Pelton (Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash), Bakithi Kumalo of Paul Simon’s “Graceland,” and folk-rock sensation Brett Dennen lending guest vocals. Gabriel’s second record and second collaboration with Healy, “Radio Ocean” was released in fall of 2021 via sonaBLAST! Records. It’s a sprawling and raucous affair, over a decade in the making, and features the totemic Lee Sklar (James Taylor, Jackson Browne, Carole King) on bass, Jason Orme (Alanis Morissette) on guitar, a full horn session comprised of Conan O’Brien’s Basic Cable Band veterans; as well as featured guest appearances by Americana darlings Birds of Chicago (JT Nero and Allison Russell), the saxophone prodigy Grace Kelly (Jon Batiste, Lee Konitz), chanteuse Jessica Childress (Aloe Blacc, Portugal. The Man), indie maverick Kate Tucker, and chanteuse Perla Batalla (Leonard Cohen).
Gabriel broad and varied experience as a musician gives him a rich palette of tones and idioms from which to draw when hired as a pianist for your event. Though listed as a "solo artist," he can also provide a full jazz trio if needed (different rates apply).
