Take it easy!

I am a self-taught guitarist, delivering a traditional song writing style with rock, acoustic, folk, country and blues influences.

Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to listen to or comment on any of my music. 
Really very much appreciated, and if you liked or reposted any of it then I simply love you 😊 

Whilst it is mostly a load of cheesy old nonsense, I have had a lot of enjoyment making all of these songs when I have time.
My vocals can be an acquired taste… (this is not my day job, just a hobby! 😂) but I hope that you can at least enjoy the musical melodical side of things.

All songs so far have been performed and recorded using a Taylor 214CE DLX on a Boss BR80 digital recorder. 

In 2024 I released “Whipped, Stripped & Almost Unplugged” which is an acoustic album of original songs. 
Further original releases have arrived and will continue to come which will be part of the next album called "The Road to Retrospection" in the near future.

I also have the pleasure of some occasional assistance from long-time friend and collaborator ©️CrackerJack on various tracks (check out his own stuff he’s pretty good!) and hope you can find a song you like out of everything that is here.

Much Love

Here I would like to present music composed and produced by myself (multitracking guitars, bass, and drums) and pieces that were created in the context of various bands since 1990. Some of the tracks are completely worked out, some are demos, some are from jam sessions, and some are live recordings. When relevant, in each single track the band name is given, the respective players are listed, and details as to the background of the music are presented.
All drawings and paintings were done by myself and, in some cases, by my wife, Andrea.

I like to compose in different styles, deeply influenced by classical music, especially Baroque. I love soul, funk, jazzy rock and pop.

I am a being who composes piano music. Enjoy!

The bottom line is that the older we get and the more we experience, the less certain we are about things we once thought we knew for sure.

So life has taught me that all I know is that I know nothing!

And I look with sadness and horror at the present state of the human world!

But - 'Moderate lamentation is the right of the dead, excessive grief the enemy to the living.'

Hi. I went to edit one word of my bio and I accidentally deleted it. Off the top of my head it said, "something something something, blah blah blah, why are you reading this? Go and listen to music!"

Verdammt! Vor 25 Jahren wollte mich Peter Gabriel verklagen, weil ich unter meinem Namen Gabriel Musik machte (kein Witz). Inzwischen gibt es so viele mit dem Namen Gabriel, dass ich auf kaum einem Streaming-Portal mehr gefunden werden kann. Höchste Zeit also für einen neuen Namen! Es würde mich sehr freuen, wenn ihr mir weiter gewogen bleibt. Denn außer dem Namen ändert sich nichts.

Damn! Twenty-five years ago, Peter Gabriel wanted to sue me because I was making music under my name, Gabriel (no joke). Now there are so many people named Gabriel that I can hardly be found on any streaming portal. So it's high time for a new name! I would be very happy if you would continue to support me. Because apart from the name, nothing else is changing.

Musik ist das, was sie ist.
Und ich bin einfach nur der, der ich bin.
Music is what it is.
And I am just who I am.

Take it easy!
