Details:
The eponymous new record from piano rocker Gabriel Mann is due April 2005. Literally and figuratively, Gabriel Mann has arrived, and just in time to open for Alanis Morissette's European tour in April and Glenn Tilbrook in the US in May. Mann's music has been compared to The Police, John Mayer and Elvis Costello. Songs on this new album range from the quirky Billy Joel-meets-Maroon 5 "OK Alone," to the anthemic "Undertow," and the sad-sweet cello and vocal heartbreaker, "When We Are One."

Gabe's forceful piano playing is backed by Carson Cohen on bass and Adam Marcello on drums, and an array of guest vocalists and musicians.His fans have packed shows ranging from solo performances at intimate venues like Hollywood's legendary Hotel Cafe to opening slots with full band for international artists such as Jamie Cullum across North America. He has developed a large and loyal fan base because of his intensely personal yet universal lyrics, hook-laden melodies, an undeniable voice and winning, dry humor.

His talents have been put to use on various film and TV projects, including his current stint as resident songwriter for Fox's Emmy-winning series Arrested Development.

Radio & Records recently celebrated Mann's emergence into the spotlight by naming him one of their Artists to Watch for 2005.
