Gabriel Scar singing Christmas songs.

Recently you could find, nationwide, a CD (with text booklet) with Christmans songs in the newspaper HET NIEUWSBLAD.
All the songs are performed by a childrens choir.  Sometimes they had some grown up support.  One of them was Gabriel Scar.

He sang 4 of the 22 songs.  So, everyone who wants to hear Gabriel sing something else than the usual, you certainly need to order it.

You can order it at "De Standaard" or by going to nieuwsbladshop.be.  It costs 6 euro 99.
It's a fun Christmas CD to listen to yourself, or to sing along with your children or grandchildren.
Also when you work with children, this can be something fun.

Gabriel Scar will perform during FRIETROCK 2009 (= French Fries Rock), for Music For Life.

Gabriel Scar will perform for a half hour on saturday 5 December 2009, at 21h30.  This will be in the deep frying establishment Den Biesakker, Wechelsebaan 19, 2275 LILLE (Belgium).

This performance is a part of FRIETROCK 2009 (= French Fries Rock 2009).  More information on www.frietrock.be

Just like a lot of fameous artists, Gabriel Scar will perform in a deep frying establishment for a good cause.  Music For Life.  The good cause of the national radio station Studio Brussel. The organisation is in the hands of "the week of the french fries", Studio Brussel and MNM.

Hopefully you will come and listen, and grab a bite to eat.  It will certainly be cosy.

There's a lot of things happening for Gabriel Scar these months.

Indeed, there are a lot of things happening around Gabriel Scar in the coming months.
Let's make a summary:

- A lot of hard work is going into his 2nd single CD, that will be very surprising.  For a lot of people he will bring something very unexpected.
- Also a lot of work and talk is going into a possible full album for Gabriel Scar.  So hopefully this will all come to a fantastic end.
- This is not the only studio time that Gabriel is going through these days.  He's also recording a song, that he wants to send in for Eurosong. Not in Belgium naturally, because the choice is already made there.  But Gabriel doesn't want to leave it at that. That's why his management wants to try the grand aproach.  They want to try and send it in to all the countries in Europe, and wait what the reactions will be.
- Gabriel Scar also started his own band.  They will support him during live shows and they are all prepared to go all the way for this project. The band has been baptised "The Crazy Musical Animals".  The name of the live project will therefor be "Gabriel Scar & The Crazy Musical Animals".
- There are plans for a big showcase concert in the period of February-March 2010.

Soon there will be more to read about these things on the website, so keep your eye on the site.

Gabriel Scar and Triple-S go their own ways.

Since about a week, Gabriel Scar and Triple-S went their own musical ways. This, because of circumstances and a few differences in opinion involving their music. Gabriel Scar wishes all the best to Triple-S for the future and will certainly come and see them during some of their shows

Gabriel, himself, is working hard to form his own accompanying band, which is almost complete. 28 September 2009, in Louvain, during the first rehearsal of the band, there will be auditions for the 2 guitarist vacancies.
After that, the band will be complete.

Coming winter they will be working hard on the repertoire and on advertising, so that they can start performing in 2010. You will not only be able to book Gabriel Scar "Live on tape" (which is already possible), but also with his band.

The debut single, that has been long expected, of Gabriel Scar is finally there. As you may already have known, it's the song "Lightning Love". It's a modern sounding pop-rock song, with a hint towards the sound of pop-rock from the 70s and 80s.  If you would like to buy him, then you can already download the single as MP3. You can find it at www.belgianmusiconline.be (and soon also at iTunes if everything goes well). In August there will also be talks with some stores, in order to sell them there too.

Gabriel Scar already wins 2 shows of Muziektoppers !!!

Gabriel Scar has already won the "1 of the 3" part, of the TV show Muziektoppers, twice.  (First against Steve Tielens and Silk, after that against Axelle and Nathalie Tané).

So hopefully you will vote for Gabriel Scar (and his band Triple-S) starting 10 July. You can vote in 3 different ways:

1) 10 July (or during 1 of the repetitions that week) with the red button, if you are watching the show (Muziektoppers) on S-Television (Telenet Digital).
2) 1 FREE vote per e-mail address, if you're watching the show by the website www.muziektoppers.be (there you can watch all the shows and vote for free, if you subscribe yourself for free).
3) Voting by sms (1 euro per sms). If you're watching by TV or website, you will see the letter (and what you need to sms) appearing on the bottom of the screen when Gabriel Scar is singing. 
But please, wait with smsing until you've seen the images of Gabriel Scar in Bobbejaanland (outdoors), so that you can't mix up with the images (and the letter) of the Kokorico (indoors). Because it could be another letter this time, that you have to sms. And then you could be supporting another artist, without wanting that.

Anyway, a super thank you to you already !!!

Gabriel can be seen in a part of the program called "1 van de 3" (= one out of 3).  That's a part of the program where 3 less known artists (because the rest of the program is built around fameous artists in different styles of music) each get one minute to bring their song.  After that, the public can start voting by televoting (if they have Telenet Digital), by sms (as much as they want to) or through the website (you can only vote once there).  Voting starts from 22nd May, at 20h00, until the 30th May.  The one that wins can return the show after that to compete against 2 other candidates. If you win 3 shows in a row, you can bring the complete song in the show after that, between the fameous stars in the show.

Or by one of the ways that everyone can vote. By sms for example. Send the message S MT B in an sms to the number 3108 starting 22nd May, from 20h00.
Pay attention, it costs 1 euro for every sms you send and for every sms you receive.  You can sms as much as you want.
