About the Artist:
Gabe bridges folk with country with pop to stitch a musical quilt. His parents came to the U.S. from Taiwan in the early ‘80s and settled in Nashville, where his mother was a professional pianist. Trained as a classical pianist, he carved his own style, progressing from small gigs to high profile openings for the likes of Jason Isbell, Los Lobos and Molly Tuttle. Stepping to the front of the stage, he is now an international headliner. He’s played the Grand Ole Opry, Austin City Limits, the Cayamo musical cruise and a range of festivals, including the Kerrville Folk Festival, Americanafest and Sisters Folk Festival. Gabe has been featured in Rolling Stone, No Depression and Billboard.

Whitney began playing music in Spokane and became a must see Seattle busker. She is featured in the award winning film, Find Your Way: A Busker’s Documentary with world renowned violinist Joshua Bell. How did Whitney Mongé launch into busking? A friend challenged her to pick a date and time to step out of her personal performance space into the very public one of Pike Place Market. She is high stepping now.
