He released his first single “Gabriel and the vagabond” c/w with “Indiscriminate Act of kindness” on December 18th, 2006 on Wurdamouth Records. “Gabriel and the Vagabond” was featured in cult US TV drama Grey’s Anatomy and received an incredible response and demand to release the track as a single.

Saw him a year or two ago supporting Buddy Guy, I wasn't expecting much but by the time he was halfway through his first song I couldn't tear my eyes away. He possibly even rivalled the man himself in my eyes that night.

He did a great job yesterday in Munich supporting Tori! Amazing voice, although I like it even more in the calmer parts. But what did he do to his guitar? Poor thing! And I wonder if he's gonna be able to do his job for the next 30years, cause he had to bend down to reach the mike. Take care, Foy!
