John Gabriel is a singer/songwriter and guitarist from Düsseldorf. His musical

comes from classic rock and guitar-driven songwriting.

He combines these influences with a modern approach that focuses on rhythm, groove and a strong, direct guitar sound. The whole thing is complemented by vivid and narrative lyrics. Live, his main focus is on dynamics and the joy of playing. The focus is on riff-oriented songs, which also go forward in a reduced form and unfold their effect directly. He currently performs solo with acoustic guitar and plays an intense and captivating live set.

Unstrung - What happens when a Generation X songwriter meets a Gen Z singer? Unstrung. The indie rock duo combines playful lyrics with acoustic guitar, synth pads and percussive elements - and creates songs that sound both nostalgic and contemporary at the same time. With roots in DIY recording and a sound that cannot be pigeonholed, Unstrung weaves together influences from different decades. Whether it's the raw directness or the gentle grace that grabs you - Unstrung hits you right in the heart and has an almost healing effect.
