Gabriel Moreno Album Launch Gibraltar

Event information

Gabriel Moreno launches his six studio album, ‘Nights In The Belly of Bohemia.’
Accompanied by virtuoso violinist, Richard Moore, he will be performing most of the songs of the record plus some old favourites such as ‘Silly Old Dreams’ and ‘Lena Kalinka.’ There will also be readings of the new poetry book with the same name.
The entire album and the book are an ode to Bohemia understood as a place of resistance to the political farce and to the capitalist debacle. The songs yearn for deeper connections and more poetical realities.
Expect a night of communal dreams, joy, longing, desire and a lot of movement in the psyche and in the shoulders.
Taking place at the Bohemian temple of The Kasbah, Castle Steps.
Richard Moore on violin and is a virtuoso violinist who has performed with some of the most illustrious classical and folk perfomers in the UK.

Support to be announced.
GABRIEL MORENO
"Moreno’s warm voice, embroidered by The Quivering poets accompaniment, engrosses and soothes. Meditative one moment and despairing the next, these unhurried songs offer spiritual succour and solidarity, a balm for our trying times"
- Morning Star ★★★★★

“The songs tread a path between Folk, Latin and cabaret torch song. It’s an oddly effective mix which forms the perfect bed for Gabriel Moreno’s distinctive voice -a blend of Leonard Cohen, Peter Sarstedt, and dare I say it, Rex Harrison.” -(Trevor Raggart, RNR magazine)
“An Offshoot of Leonard Cohen and Neil Diamond. I love it!” (Cerys Mathews, BBC6)
Gabriel Moreno is Gibraltarian singer-songwriter, currently based in London. An irresistibly engaging performer, he combines a latin exuberance and passion with a rare lyrical calibre (he is also an accomplished poet, with 12 books published to date). Performing on nylon string guitar and accompanied by The Quivering Poets, he creates a live experience that has been described as ”Taberna Folk” - at once both energetic and intimate, anarchic and absorbing.
