EL VIAJE, Gabriela´s new musical journey, filled with deep yearning and her ever-evocative imagery, is a potent sonic feast. Beautifully written and sung by the celebrated Argentine singer/songwriter, it can best be described as musical poetry - or perhaps even as a literary soundscape. Regardless of what it is called, one thing is certain. It sounds like nothing else. Produced by Lee Townsend and Tucker Martine, EL VIAJE features Bill Frisell (guitars, loops), Viktor Krauss (bass), Eyvind Kang (viola, violin), Steve Moore (keyboards) and Martine (percussion). With this long-awaited new album, Gabriela is not only bound to delight her many fans around the world once again, but serve as a source of discovery for a burgeoning new audience, as well.

Gabriela is an Argentine-born singer/songwriter. The daughter of a diplomat, she spent her formative years in Portugal, Turkey, Ireland, Brazil and Argentina, absorbing a wealth of musical styles along the way. Living in Paris in the late ´60s, she worked in theatre and began her musical career, influenced mostly by The Beatles, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and all the music she heard during her childhood travels, from Argentine tango to Mexican rancheras and Irish ballads.

In 1996 a new chapter began for Gabriela, Acoustic Guitar Magazine described it as 'one of the ´90s most fortuitous and memorable musical pairings,' the inspired collaboration with jazz guitarist and composer Bill Frisell. In 1996, Frisell, enchanted by Gabriela´s music, passed it on to his producer, Lee Townsend, who signed her for the Songline/intuition series and produced her fifth album, DETRAS DEL SOL, featuring Bill Frisell on guitar, Alex Acuña on drums, Eyvind Kang on violin, Rob Burger on accordion, and Bill Douglass on bass. This album was highly praised by the American and German press; it won the Deutschen Schallplattenkritik award in 1997 and was chosen by Acoustic Guitar Magazine as one of the ten best albums of the decade.
