“Bright and woozy psych-pop from Gabriel Islaz - all recorded in his bedroom - will transport you to far-off shores.”
- Bandcamp Daily
“‘Corre Rua’ recreates the pandemic’s groundhog effect where time loses its value and the days bleed together. Shimmering guitars provide the base of the track, allowing space for Gabo’s harmonious vocals and a theme detailing the vital role human connection plays in our lives.”
- Ears to Feed
“#IndependentePraKCT: Gabo talks about alternative rock, digital platforms and playlists with TMDQA!”
- Tenho Mais Discos Que Amigos!
“Gabriel Islaz is obviously incorporating some of those indie sounds I tend to fawn over, from the light jangles to the dreamy quality of the vocal delivery; its got that feeling of being hit by warmth as soon as you step out into the sun.”
- Austin Town Hall

Gabo
Gabo is the dream pop project of Gabriel Islaz.
Based in Porto Alegre, Brazil, Gabo released his debut EP, Bicicleta Sem Rodinha, via Living Waters Records on April 9th, 2021. The label also released a limited run of one-sided 12” record.
Bicicleta Sem Rodinha is Gabo’s ethereal journey of home production that takes listeners on a winding, chimerical tour of the artist’s hometown streets. Its songs recall the trepidation and eagerness of ascending into adulthood; pages of a memory book flipping through shots of summer evenings tainted by personal insecurities and uncertainty. With looking back also comes a sudden jolt of one’s surroundings; the reality of a world in unrest that cares little for your need to adjust. Read full bio here.
