Gabriel Royal: Storyteller Sessions Concert presented by Irving Arts Center

Be prepared for the silky vocal and calming tones of cellist and singer-songwriter, Gabriel Royal. Born in Oklahoma yet based in Brooklyn, Gabriel Royal was discovered playing his ‘grown up lullabies’ in the subway stations of New York City. It is there where he found his love for music through the genuine connection of live performing as well as his inspiration behind his work: the commuters of New York

Influenced by Stevie Wonder’s groove and Burt Bacharach’s jazzy yet pop sensitivities, along with other contemporary artists, Gabriel’s trademark sound is all his own. Royal as a singer-songwriter with extraordinary sensitivity and creative intuition — creating music with a spirit of playfulness and improvisation. Known for his soaring vocals, hum–along melodies, and lush arrangements, Royal is among a select number of artists combining cello and voice. Contemplating love and loss, triumph and failure, and the ups and downs of relationships within his music, Royal is sure to win over his audience and captivate them with his remarkable talent.
