THE GABRIELLE LOUISE SHOW – SONGWRITER SERIES
Gabrielle Louise is a nationally touring troubadour noted for her poignant lyrics and lush voice. The daughter of two vagabond musicians, Gabrielle inherited the genetic predisposition to wanderlust and song.
Gabrielle Louise’s music is anchored deeply in folk, but undeniably drawn to rich harmonies and melodic adventurism. Her sound has the earthy feel of early Joni Mitchell while also veering into the spirited delivery of fellow genre-hopping artist Martin Sexton. Unafraid to take a random musical escapade in the name of inspiration, Gabrielle is at one moment folkie and ethereal, the next moment a smoky jazz chanteuse.
Gabrielle’s music has been best appreciated in listening atmospheres with introspective, attentive crowds. She is striving to communicate more soul than special effect and gently entice her listener to release their grip on the status quo. Known for her authenticity and candor on stage, her performances are notably present and sincere, a professional presentation of her private creative world.
What: Gabrielle Louise Show : Songwriter Series
When: Saturday, November 14, 2015
Time: 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Where: The Lark & Sparrow Venue, 511 East Main Street, Montrose, CO 81401
In the original songwriting realm, she has 100% independently released a handful of records, Journey (2006), Around in Circles, the E.P. (2007), Cigarettes for Sentiments (2008), Live in Coal Creek Canyon (2009), Mirror the Branches (2010), and most recently, The Bird in My Chest (2014).
Her most recent collection of songs was released in tandem with a book of poetry and short stories. It comes in an original, handmade case that holds a the book as well as the record itself, which features the beautiful black and white photography of Kristen Hatgi-Sink and Mark Sink.
“The Bird in My Chest” is an intimate, self-exposing love record. The prose that accompanies it was written at the same time as the music, and provides deeper insight into the songs, as well as Gabrielle’s personality and her life on the road as a traveling troubadour.
Come see Gabrielle in the best venue in Montrose! We hope you can make it!
Cheers,
The Lark & Sparrow, LLC
