Gabriel - 04 Falling Skyward - Visionary EP

“Visionary” is not your typical rock band playing your typical rock record. Everything has to have a beginning, and Visionary is the beginning of a multiple-sided quest. Ultimately aimed at the understanding of the “Greater design”, this is a quest that comprehends  musical, personal, philosophical and spiritual research.

        Visionary is the brain child of guitarist/composer Gabriel (Gabriel Gianelli), who’s been very clear about his interests in discovering, understanding, and “musicalizing” the human journey to the realization of his connection to everything that exists. Also a mean to find what his inner self is looking for: embodied in the Visionary’s concept/opera with “Felicity”, a guide who “magically” appears in his inner life and provides the key to the door that most of us, sooner or later, wishes to open. 

        As he explains, “The quest that this projects represents has gradually grown and morphed alongside my own growth.  My life in general, was too simple and relatively young to be literally translated into music, so to lay down the blue prints of this concept i started to pay more attention and get more in tune with everything that surrounds us . That’s why I began to draw from everything else around me, making every single piece of inspiration a fundamental part of the puzzle. By turning it into music, I hope everyone will understand and empathize with the message through this fantastic and most universal language. Though unconsciously at times, this message is aimed to reach the very core of the listener, and the addition of dreamful images and pertinent lyrics. I really hope it will facilitate the comprehension of everything I am trying to communicate.

        The help of other very significant individuals, was and still is paramount for me. This communication and connection of souls and different vibes, I believe, is the most honest and heartfelt foundation for this journey of life, vision, feelings, music and growth. The musicians that are working with me on this concept, starting off with singer Garrett Holbrook, drummer Anthony JR Morra, bassist/producer Fabrizio Grossi and flautist Pippo Pippetti: came together more as a gathering of compatible souls rather than a "rock band cliché" audition assembly. Our interaction makes the intricate walk through the “Visionary” journey a secure and tamed “path” for our expression. Hopefully this will benefit you through your understanding and enjoyment!"

In conclusion, the young “Visionary," Gabriel, sums up his views and his presentation stating: “I see “Visionary” as the communication vehicle that I’ve embraced to push people into observing the beauty of life from a different perspective. It is my story yes, but it is also the story of the “Whole”. Everything is part of it and everything reflects within it. Reality can be like a book. When we read it, we often get lost in it. And among its pages and words, we often lose or forget our curiosity for its overall true meaning. But I want to understand it. And here I am, looking up to the stars, close my eyes, and finally see it all."

Free your mind, drop all preconceptions, embrace the willingness to “feel”, and let the journey begin!
