There are a lot of up and coming singer/songwriters based out of Chattanooga these days. Gabriel Newell is one of those songwriters. Recently, Gabriel has been attempting to get his feet wet in local venues around town. He performs regularly at Tremont Tavern and just performed, for the first time, at Rhythm n’ Brews. Later this month, he’ll open for the talented (and very popular) Angie Aparo. It’s always wonderful to hear a new talent. I think you’ll enjoy Gabriel’s tunes.
