Hi! I'm a jazz-trained singer, songwriter, pianist, bassist, producer and arranger with over 10 years experience in the studio and onstage; originally from Australia, I'm now based in LA after 9 years in NY. If you need dreamy lead vocals, ethereal BVs, or a catchy topline, delivered with precision and professionalism, hit me up!
I have a BFA and a BMus from The New School for Jazz and the West Australian Academy of Performing Arts. I've had my music placed in campaigns for major brands, and have sung on a variety of demo tracks for leading commercial music houses, in a range of styles such as indie pop, lo-fi, folk, pop-rock, gospel, jazz and choral. I write and record my original music under RVBY MY DEAR, and my sound and songs have been compared to Lana Del Rey, Liz Fraser of Massive Attack, Beth Gibbons of Portishead, London Grammar, Daughter, Fiona Apple and Bjork. I'm also a choral soprano with various choirs and ensembles (which means I can sing very high and am very good at harmonies!).

It was a pleasure working with Cabbi! She helped me turn a very emotional lyric I wrote into a beautiful song. Professional and great communication. I highly recommend Gabbi.

Third time working with Gabbi...that should tell you the whole story. Great, great singer. Perfect for what I needed.

Gabbi was a pleasure to work with, a total pro! She delivered exactly what we asked for and before the deadline. As an unexpected bonus, she threw in some extra vocal tracks to give us more options, which ended up improving the song, something that only songwriter and producer like herself can offer. Oh, and most importantly, she possesses a gorgeous vocal tone! Highly recommended!

I think this is my third (!) review for Gabbi. That probably says it all. : ) But on this latest one, I was *again* impressed by her versatility and adaptability. These songs required soul/mood and went into some dark places. Phenomenal work again.

Fantastic work again! As with previous collaborations, Gabbi is great at capturing the right feel and mood for the music. Oh yeah, killer voice, too! Thank you!!!

I can't thank Gabbi enough for her professional, perfectly pitched beautiful vocals. She quickly understood what I was looking for in terms of vocal style, read the music sheet I provided and delivered really good. I do really hope to be able to work with her again.

I just did my second collab with Gabbi, and am again blown away. I again gave her very minimal direction and was just floored by what came back. This is indeed how it should work. Gabbi is a talent; I can't say enough good things.

Great talent and voice. Recommended.

Gabbi is a phenomenal talent with versatility and a great timbre. I gave her very little guidance outside of the lyrics and she nailed it. Revisions were minimal, and more just experimentation than "corrections". Extremely happy with the outcome and this partnership. Good communicator--understood where I was going and got things super fast.

We've collaborated with several commissioned session performers but Gabbi is unquestionably the best sounding and most professional singer we've found. From the beginning, with her spot-on demo recording, it was clear that she doesn't just sing a track, she has that much sought-after ability to interpret. Her voice ranges from raw and intense to crystalline and tender. Open to feedback and eager, Gabbi is wonderful to work with through the whole process - get her now before she's on the Top 20!

Gabbi was amazing, her voice and pitch is great, did exactly what I asked for, would hire again!
