Gabriel The Marine

Gabriel the Marine is a critically acclaimed, violin-infused indie rock/pop quintet from Long Island who have been featured in SPIN magazine. Formed in the winter of 2008, the band has toured across the US and supported such bands and artists as Taking Back Sunday, Bayside, and Jack’s Mannequin.  Their latest EP Your Friends and Loved Ones, released in 2009, was heralded by Absolutepunk.net as “phenomenal”, and catapulted them to PureVolume.com’s list of Top 20 Unsigned Bands of 2009.

Gabriel the Marine is currently working on their full length with producer Jim Wirt, who has produced the likes of Fiona Apple, Jack’s Mannequin and Incubus. Gabriel the Marine completed the first half of their record in January and are scheduled to head back into the studio in the Summer of 2011.

The band is hitting this road this summer touring the east coast and various cities in the Midwest. “Gabriel the Marine is the freshest most original band I've seen in years…maybe ever. Their blend of classical, progressive, and rootsy styles, completely blows me away. I love working with them" - Jim Wirt Producer engineer.
