Music Television is pleased to present Gaby Moreno, the fabulous international recording artist and the Latin Grammy winner in the Best New Artist category, Gaby Moreno. At the time of this writing, she has a new album titled Ilúsion coming out soon. She is performing two "Ilúsion Record Preview" shows, one at Resident in Los Angeles on June 14th 2016 (click here for tickets), and another in New York at Joe's Pub on June 16th, 2016 (click here for tickets). A definite to do!.(NOTE: Since this article was originally posted, Ilusion has been released. See videos here)
Don't let the Latin Grammy win pigeonhole her as a strictly Latin artist. She has a very broad English and Spanish repertoire that crosses genres and eras. She is a wonderful blues, rock and soul artist.
Whilst none of the new material from the Ilúsion album has been released as of yet, just below are some handpicked videos and live performances from previous years.
The first video below is from NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series and it's lovely! She performs three of her songs titled No Regrets, Ave Que Emigra and Sing Me Life. She is accompanied by Adam Levy.
Gaby Moreno - Live on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series
Music Television is very proud to once again present the fabulous singer, songwriter and recording artist, Gaby Moreno.
She plays in everything from full blown electric bands with real horns and strings all the way down to keeping it simple, unplugged and acoustic. She jumps from from English to Spanish songs as she crosses multiple genres with grace and style. No the matter the occasion, she matches it with impeccable versatility.
Below is a very tasty Gaby Moreno performances from a 2011 appearance on NPR Music's Tiny Desk Concert with her friend Adam Levy sitting in on guitar & background vocals with perfection. They perform three of Gaby's originals from her album titled Illustrated Songs.
Each of the three songs are a captivating treat. The final of the three is titled Sing Me Life which is sort of a call to arms to not let outside powers rule ones world. It's terrific down the the last note. The studio version is a worthy listen as is the entire Illustrated Songs album.

0:00 "No Regrets"
