Gaby Moreno, a soulful new songwriter, is a transplant from Guatemala City, Guatemala. It was there that Gaby first learned to speak English by playing and singing along with such greats as BB King, Robert Johnson and Nina Simone.
Gaby gravitated to Los Angeles, CA in 2001 where she attended The Musician’s Institute and honed her craft. Her unique songwriting (she writes in English and Spanish) won her many new fans. In addition, the LA music community took notice and Gaby soon found herself writing songs with some incredibly talented musicians and producers. \"Meant to Fly,\" (co-written by Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida) a song that came from one of the writing sessions was recorded by the winner of Canadian Idol 2006 (Eva Avila).
More recently, she made history as the first Latin category winner to take home the \"Maxell Song of the Year\" Award for her song \"Escondidos\", written with Ari Shine and Victor Indrizzo. She was presented with the Maxell Song of the Year award at Roseland Ballroom in New York City, where Fergie made a stop on her Verizon VIP Tour. For the first time, the winner of the coveted prize had the opportunity to open a show for an award winning multi-platinum artist.
Gaby Moreno has a soulful, melodic sound that appeals to the masses, and her Guatemalan roots will always endear her to her South American fans.

La vez que no me pude atrever
author: Melvin
Incredible!... I really enjoy this album, from the beginning to the end. The style, lyrics, music and the voice of Gaby... all in one great album! I'm from Guatemala too... and I have seen all the work that Gaby had been doing since she was in school... Busqué este disco en Guatemala desde que salió y no lo encontraba hasta que lo vi en esta pagina... es un disco para escucharlo una y otra vez, desde el principio hasta el final. La primera canción que escuché fue "La vez que no me pude atrever", la escuché en un Restaurante de Guatemala y tuve que ir con el Gerente para preguntar quien era, con la sorpresa que era Gaby Moreno, aquella Gaby que conocí hace ya varios años en el colegio... me dio mucho gusto saber que ya tenía disco y todo. Ojalá no pare de hacer música y llegue con el disco a muchos lugares.
Es un disco con mucho BLUES, sonidos acústicos muy característicos y suaves... y la voz de Gaby es muy melódica, inspiradora, cautivadora, yo diría que atrapa.
Espero que Gaby siga haciendo más música, llegando a más lugares, conquistando nuevos escenarios y ponindo siempre en alto el nombre de Guatemala. Gaby: me encantó el disco! ...buenísimo! Ojalá muchos lo compren y comprueben que es un disco increíble... Un abrazo.

I love the entire CD, even the spanish songs that I don't understand. Gabe has a beautiful voice. My daughter loves it too. My boyfriend, who listens to rock & metal, likes it. He says she has a "haunting voice".
