Gabrielle Louise’s music is an incorporation of contrasting elements that blend folk, pop, roots, jazz, and country. She creates music as versatile as her geographical history. From her small-town Colorado upbringing through her recent cosmopolitan city experience, she has developed an old soul, a traveler's spirit, and a voice as clear as a Rocky Mountain morning."...Her beautiful voice carrying a message of peace could be mistaken for a visit from a member of an angelic choir. But there is more to Gabrielle Louise than her musicianship and talent. [She is] a staunch advocate of environmental responsibility...I find encouragement in a commitment like this."
Willie Nelson's Peace Research Institute"Gabrielle Louise is a deceiving package. Though young and beautiful, the guitar-playing singer/songwriter sounds like an older woman. Her pop/country blend is distinctly adult-contemporary in flavor and boasts mature lyrics. Lovers of folk music will appreciate Louise's strong voice, which she uses with equal success on stunning high notes and rumbling lows."
The Gazette, (Colorado Springs, CO)"…At just 21 she embodies the wholesome Colorado town she grew up in, but the singer songwriter honed her music skills in Boston, where she has developed a maturity in both singing and songwriting that many have compared to folk greats Jewel and Joni Mitchell. " “Backstage with Barry Nolan,†Comcast Entertainment Television, (North East Markets)“The lady is a singer/songwriter par excellence. She is noted for her poignant lyrics, and is a two-time John Lennon songwriting contest finalist. Gabrielle also brandishes an astonishing voice that is reminiscent of a young Joan Baez or Joni Mitchell.â€
Charlie Vervalin, The Black Rose (Colorado Springs, CO)"Gabrielle has always been a favorite at Acoustic Music Revival,
seeing her perform has been like watching the unfolding of an up and coming major star,
not unlike being there when Joni Mitchell was an unknown
and one could see her perform at small cafes and concert venues."
Acoustic Music Revival, (Denver, CO)“Gabrielle Louise sings and writes songs on the highest plane. Her
lyrics are poetic and her singing is nothing short of amazing! â€
Country star Michael Martin Murphey "We are so excited to be able to bring a young star of this energy and passion to The Radio Room…Gabrielle Louise is one of those artists that people talk about for years after seeing her perform."
