Plant a seed...and watch it grow. Only beginning to bloom, San Francisco singer/songwriter Gabe Gonzales offers a glimpse of his budding potential with "Seeds of Tomorrow."
****************************************************************
An eclectic collection of intimate narratives with a dream-like landscape, the simple yet elegant melodies of "Seeds of Tomorrow" combines heartfelt vocals and bittersweet lyrics with jangly guitars and tender, moody synths creating a seamless fusion of alternative/indie/folk. ****************************************************************
Self-released in June of 2008, “Seeds” was written, performed, recorded, and produced by Gonzales himself @ El Garaje in San Francisco. Regarding his newest songs, Gabe has recently stated: “…they just keep coming…and I can’t help but share them!” **************************************************************** Gabe is currently performing solo acoustic with special guests, and contributes as a sideman to various projects.

Hey Gabe. Great seeing you and the Mrs. the other night at your gig. It's been a long time since I've seen you guys out and about. Kudos and great job on your set on Fri.

The music, the lyrics, the artwork, everything. And I love my BEETS seeds. I got Beets! haha. Your music and lyrics are so simple, but have so much substance and are very heartfelt. You know I'm waiting for the music videos to come out...hahaha "P Anyhoo, continued success Mr. Gabe Gonzales and great job! I'm waiting for the day when I can say....I knew him before he was famous... hee, hee.
Cool. I hope they sound like good dirty south gangsta' rap (just kidding!). I think about that song you described to Ana and I the last time I saw you and it still cracks me up! I hope you and the family are well! Peace.
