Gaby Michel

Singer/Songwriter of thought provoking music & huge fan of Dolly Parton.

 I was singer for 25 years, then, in 2004 I experienced the loss of a child and I lost my ability to sing. So, I didn’t sing for 15 years. I started working for Unity of the Blue Ridge as a Youth Education Director in 2019 and then COVID-19 hit and we were shut down. I had to figure out a way to continue to connect with the kids and give them spiritual messages. I decided to pick up the ukulele and learn how to play. It turned out, a lot of songs I wanted to do had chords that required 15 fingers! To do those songs, I picked up GarageBand and started recording songs. 

My goal in song writing is to create songs that speak to our fears and life challenges and also offer a spiritual solution to those things. I believe in addressing things like grief and sorrow as away to move through them. No spiritual bypassing here! 

Thank you to everyone for watching and supporting me through this journey back to my voice.
