Quebec indie-folk singer/songwriter Gabrielle Shonk has just released her hotly anticipated self-titled debut album on Universal Music Canada. Her soulful vocals and poetic lyrics draw listeners in with a nod to the classic folk pop artists such as Joni Mitchell or Bob Dylan.
Lead single “Habit” grabbed early attention from VICE’s Noisey who likened Shonk’s vocals to a mix of Alicia Keys, Fiona Apple, and Amy Winehouse. Gabrielle has launched a Canadian tour with a special show in NYC next week.
For a taste of Shonk’s captivating live show, check out the “Habit” (Live Session) live video shot in a beautiful barn just outside of Toronto.
Shonk explains, “This song is pretty special to me. It’s release last spring literally changed my life. It brought me so many amazing opportunities and the last year has been positively overwhelming because of it! Playing this song ‘Live’ with my band feels so good every time, so I’m really happy we got to put this on tape!”
