A whipsmart self taught 20 year old singer-songwriter from Bath, Gabrielle has been writing and recording songs since she was 15. Growing up in a (self confessed) ‘hippy’ household,where music was a family staple, she honed her craft listening to Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen and Nick Drake. At 17 she set up her own label Never Fade Records (just recently she announced her first signing)and went on to release 3 EPs, all of which charted on iTunes. She currently has in excess of 29 million+ YouTube views to date. Her debut Parlophone Records single, acover of Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s “The Power Of Love”, went to #1 on the UK Top 40 Singles Chart in December 2012.

Of her songwriting Gabrielle says;

“It can take minutes, hours or weeks - each one is different - but I’ve been working on this album now for months - from writing to recording, even being involved with the artwork – and I can’t wait for everyone to finally hear it.”
