THE BAND

Gabriel was born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil. His passion for music began after watching a Bon Jovi DVD, at the early age of 2. At just 5 years old, he picked up the guitar and was determined to learn every Bon Jovi song out there. He quickly developed a love for playing music and taught himself how to play drums at the age of 9, by watching a Metallica DVD. Along the way, Gabriel also picked up bass, piano, and vocal skills, making him a talented multi-instrumentalist. In 2017, Gabriel's hard work and dedication paid off when he got endorsed by Ernie Ball Music Man. He made his debut as a solo artist in 2018, yet ultimately decided to continue his career under the band name “Dead Marble”, a project where he composes and records every aspect in the music. It was through his studies at Musicians Institute in Los Angeles that he met his bandmates. In his free time, Gabriel enjoys playing soccer.
