Latin Grammy winner and 66th Grammy Awards nominee Gaby Moreno announces full band tour

Announcement posted by Jameson & Co 23 Nov 2023

Recent Latin Grammy-winner and nominee in the 66th Annual Grammy Awards, Gaby Moreno is bringing her band and a brand new album to Australia in March 2024, kicking her tour off with her return to Port Fairy Folk Festival on March 8-11.

She will then hit the road and perform at Archies Creek Hotel (March 16), Sydney's Foundry 616 (March 20), The Stag and Hunter Hotel in Mayfield (Newcastle - March 22), Brisbane Jazz Club (March 23) and the Majestic Theatre Pomona in the Noosa hinterlands on Sunday, March 24.

To see this trailblazer perform is to be awestruck by her breathtaking voice and exquisite guitar flourishes as she glides back and forth easily and exuberantly between bossa nova, jazz, blues and rock, with English and Spanish lyrics that honour her experiences as a Guatemalan immigrant living in the US.

Moreno has been nominated in the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, with her album Alegoría recognised in the Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album category. As a producer, she recently won a Latin Grammy in the Children's Album category for her work on the ¡Cantando Juntos! by Zona Neón.

These add to her many career highlights which include co-writing the theme song for the multi-award-winning TV series Parks and Recreation (NBC) and collaborating with Van Dyke Parks on her 2019 album, ¡Spangled! featuring songs celebrating the migration of music across the Americas. She has performed several times at Lincoln Center in NYC and The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and shared the stage with luminaries Emmy Lou Harris, Bono, Tracy Chapman, Andrea Bocelli, Ani DiFranco, Hugh Laurie and The Copper Bottom Band, Punch Brothers, Chris Thile, Nickel Creek, Buena Vista Social Club, Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings, Taj Mahal, Jackson Browne, Van Dyke Parks and many more.

Moreno is the first in her country to be honoured as UNICEF goodwill ambassador in Guatemala.

Gaby Moreno fans in Sydney, Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula and Healesville can also see her perform with three-part harmony supergroup The SongBirds, alongside Erica Canales and Dannielle De Andrea. The SongBirds will also be performing at Port Fairy Folk Festival.
