From an early age, Gabriela has been captivated by the power of music.
Gabriela was born in Puerto Rico and raised in the Dominican Republic, where her world always revolved around the arts, dancing merengue in the streets, performing at school events, and singing in church. Despite her small frame, her voice has always been big, and strong enough to fill any room with rhythm and emotion. Family gatherings almost always ended with her performing, surrounded by love, laughter, and music.
At 14, Gabriela moved to Lawrence, Massachusetts to continue her education and chase new opportunities in the United States. Learning a new language and culture wasn’t easy, but music was her anchor. Gabriela spent hours practicing guitar, training her voice, and sharing performances online, and to her surprise, they started gaining viral attention.
That encouragement pushed Gabriela to dream bigger. She applied for the Berklee College of Music’s five-week program and was awarded a full scholarship. Her time there was life changing, she was selected as one of the top five singers in the program and had the chance to share the stage with incredible artists, including Grammy Award winner Laufey.
From there, Gabriela musical journey took off. She began performing at major events across Massachusetts, from singing for the Governor to fundraising for the Dana-Farber Institute, and connecting with audiences at countless local shows.
Eventually, Gabriela joined X’s & O’s, a professional music group led by incredible industry veterans. With them, she recorded more than 50 songs and demos and went on a 16-city tour with the popular boy band 4th Ave (from the TV series Boy Band). That chapter opened doors Gabriela had only dreamed of from catching the attention of Saban Music Group, Interscope, and Hitco, to performing on stages she’ll never forget.
Just a month after graduating high school, Gabriela signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and hit some of the biggest milestones of her career, opening for Cardi B at a sold-out show at the Paso Robles Fair, and performing in the Elvis Presley Suite at the Westgate Las Vegas. Gabriela collaboration with X’s & O’s on “Can’t Catch Me” even became the #1 hit of the summer on Radio Disney.
Then the world changed. The pandemic forced Gabriela to pause, reflect, and reset. During that time, she returned to the Dominican Republic, continued creating independently, and pursued a degree in International Business, something that helped Gabriela grow both as a person and as an artist.
Now, Gabriela’s back stronger, more focused, and more inspired than ever. She’s joined forces with hit songwriter and producer Dirk Pate, and creating music that blends with Gabriela’s multicultural roots along with modern pop energy.
Gabriela vision is to make music that transcends borders, songs that connect people everywhere through rhythm, emotion, and truth. She’s ready to share this next chapter of her story with the world!
