Gabrielle Stravelli

Gabrielle is THRILLED to celebrate the release of her trio’s debut album "Beautiful Moons Ago”! With pianist Michael Kanan and bassist Pat O’Leary, the group infuses their music with a hard swinging style rooted in jazz tradition coupled with Stravelli's totally modern lyric interpretations, bringing the American Songbook to vivid life. "Beautiful Moons Ago" features twelve rarely heard gems from jazz and The American Songbook by well-known writers like Jule Styne and Cy Coleman as well as lesser-known writers like Doris Fisher and Clara Edwards. The album was recorded at the legendary Rudy Van Gelder Studio. Over twelve years of collaborating, the trio has developed a musical connection that allows for great spontaneity in their performances and reflects their true joy in making music together. The American Songbook is no museum piece for this group, but a living, breathing testament to the power of a beautiful melody and lyrics that allow us to find our shared truths
