Gavin Turek

It’s impossible not to become infatuated with soulful pop princess Gavin Turek. The LA Native is always clad in a hand-made 70s fringe dress (designed herself in every color) and armed with the best dance moves you’ve ever seen. It’s easy to draw comparisons anywhere from Tina Turner to Beyoncé but really, Gavin is her own force to be reckoned with. Performing always came natural: she grew up with a father who played piano and tagging alongside her mother, who toured coffeeshops singing gospel. Her origin story goes like this: at age three, a teeny tiny Gavin interrupted her mother mid performance, took over the mic and to the astonishment of the audience, finished the song for her. She knew every single lyric, word for word, and whoa, that girl could sing. Suffice to say, a star was born.

2016 release from the Swiss musician. With the sound of the organic human voice now at the center of his music, Pablo Nouvelle has created an extraordinary album to shape the new future with. Allowing for an almost physical sense of landscape and distant horizons to thrive, the studio magician conjures a strong feeling of space and mood through a broad palette of differently colored voices. Ranging from the catchy 'Hold On' with Swiss singer-songwriter James Gruntz to 'Paint' as the result of a late night studio session in the kitchen of London-based singer Norma Jean Martine, 15 of Pablo Nouvelle's favorites have been chosen to feature on his second album. And as the diversity of the voices proves to be the crucial element in an everlasting, non-repetitive album, it unmistakably contains the vision of an artist who very much knows his mind. Rising as a tribute to both Pablo Nouvelles music roots (which finds its origin in the 60s soul music) and to the act of sampling as a true art form in itself, this is 'All I Need'.
