Gabriel's big cd release concert event

Two delicious flavors of the same show...

Both shows will debut new material from OPEN INVITATION and include full 5 piece band with Tilden Webb, Adam Rohrlick, Don Powrie, and Laurence Mollerup. You must get tix in advance, info on the poster below...

Jan 10 will be a tight packed Jazz Club style show at Ten Ten Tapas, with great food as part of the show. $20 ticket gets you admission to an exciting jazz club experience, with a plethora of fans and friends.... rezzies required at 604-689-7800. Expect standing room only and a loud and proud five piece band playing new and older material.

Jan 11 is worth the drive to White Rock for this full scale concert stage experience at the amazing Blue Frog. We will record and film it, and it will be worth the effort to attend! Tix are $35, but the production value certainly warrants it! Click link to buy.


If you can't make the show it will be a darn shame! 

Anyway-

OK, back to the Present!! 

Friday Dec 12  I am honoured to be part of the Amanda Wood 'Celebrate The Love' Christmas Special at the Kay Meek Theatre in North Van. Last year's show was topshelf, and this year, the only thing that changes is that proceeds go toward the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation... a worthwhile cause 'close to home'...  

Saturday Dec 13  I settle in for a blustery (yet jazzy) eve in a warm and inviting environment at Ten Ten Tapas http://www.tententapas.com. Rezzies are already nearing max, so call 604-689-7800 to make yours. Free parking- just ask when you book. I will also be there Dec 20th and 27th... we gotta party right through the holidays!

That brings us to New Years Eve!

I started at Ten Ten Tapas over a year ago, and we had a boffo New Years last year! The place was packed and the food was excellent! Since then, master chef Matt Phillips has taken the helm and created such an amazing menu- actually an AWARD WINNING menu. He has some great plans for New Years Eve, and I am bringing in other musical guest artists, such as pianist and vocalist Rob Weaver; powerhouse chanteuse Lisa Fennell; and the Soulman himself Billy Dixon.  

We start jazzy while you dine, then party hearty on into the night.... with funky stuff, R&B, and the Classics! An earlier seating is available in case you have later plans....Rezzies are a must, so call 604-689-7800 to make yours- come and see why everyone is talking about Ten Ten Tapas!

This is why I will love music till my ashes blow away...

....  and will live it, breathe it, and fight for it!

There is way too much earth-shakingly good music out there to catalog, along with dumbed down, banal, repetitive, and tasteless pap of course (even a longer list).

When you find something that reaches way down inside of you and grabs your organs from the inside, then you know firsthand the feeling that has no price tag...

Here is a little example:


Long live warriors of the sweet and sassy note!
