Connecting with Vocalist Brenda Williams in Indianapolis

On cloud 9 because... I had the privilege of connecting with an award-winning jazz vocalist who has performed for three U.S. Presidents. And can you believe it - we share Montana in common. 

Learning from artists who have carved their own path in this genre and are committed to performing till they can perform no more is a gift. It’s incredible to realize that right here in Indianapolis, we have a jazz community filled with musicians who have lived and breathed this music on some of the biggest stages.

Indianapolis Jazz Vocalist - Big Band and Jazz Como

Hello jazz lover. I hope this finds you well, Still loving jazz? I sure hope so! I'm pleased to bring you an exciting update. After much travel and bringing two beautiful children into the world, my husband and I have settled in the great city of Indianapolis... and I am making music again.

Singing at The Jazz Kitchen, November 2024

At Jazz Kitchen with Kevin Anker, Fred Withrow, and Bruce Richter

Things are moving fast in this thriving music scene. By way of first friday open studios and jam sessions, I connected with a wonderful big band named God's Mighty Horns (GM Horns Big Band) and am also singing with small combos for public and private events.

My first public performance is a fun and uplifting Christmas show next week with GM Horns at The Jazz Kitchen, but it is already sold out!

Next up isn't until March 30th at the beautiful Indiana Roof Ballroom, but tickets are already selling fast. So, here is the link to book: https://crystalsignatureevents.thundertix.com/events/238470

A great, large stage and plenty of room to dance!

I look forward to sharing more, along with the "why" behind finally settling down and making Indianapolis my home base. We have lived here for 3 years and we are loving it, with no plans to leave. I've been traveling since age 17, so finding a place to call home means a lot.

My instagram page @thejazzmama is where I do most of my sharing, it is more updated right now.

May you have a blessed and beautiful holiday season. I'm grateful to God for the winding but beautiful journey and the bright outlook. I look forward to sharing updates soon.

Blog is moving!

Hey everyone,

I just took a fantastic wordpress class by Karen at Impact Online Marketing, so my blogger site is moving! I can't wait for all the cool features I'll be enjoying, I've grown out of this basic platform pretty quickly.

💙 UPDATE 2024: My ownership of my URL lauragabriele.com lapsed, and a different Laura Gabriele snapped it up! So I'm back to using this website to provide updates. :) Grateful it's still here!
