Watch Gabriel Bruce in Session for Best Fit
Channelling the great gruff and weathered vocalists we know and love (Cash, Waits, Cave) and wearing the visage of a young Joe Strummer, former Loverman vocalist Gabriel Bruce is set to rise in this coming year, with his debut Love in Arms due for a release next month.
We met Bruce a few weeks back and he talked of the opportunities afforded to his status as a solo artist that just weren’t on the table during his Loverman time. “I couldn’t see past the image we’d created and I think maybe it was those constrictions that suffocated the band,” he explained.
Watch out Gabriel’s Best Fit Session – a haunting take of new single ‘Cars Not Leaving’ – above.
‘Cars Not Leaving’ is released on 11 March and you can listen to the it streaming over on Dummy. Love in Arms is released on 11 February.
