FATHER/DAUGHTER ACOUSTIC DUO
COUNTRY | ORIGINALS

GABnDAD is a father–daughter acoustic duo bringing together country, southern rock, and original music with heart, grit, and undeniable chemistry. Chad (Dad) taught himself to play guitar at just 14 years old, forming his first band soon after and continuing to play in various bands over the years. His journey led him to writing and recording music in Nashville, experiences that shaped both his sound and his lifelong passion for music. That same dream and drive were passed down to his daughter Gabrielle (GAB), and today, they get to share that passion side by side on stage. From bars and restaurants to festivals, campgrounds, and private parties, GABnDAD has traveled all across the North Country, bringing their music wherever people gather. You name it—they’ve played it. Their natural personalities, on-stage energy, and genuine connection not only make for a great show, but have also helped them build lasting relationships with audiences and venue owners alike.
Performance Highlights
With 40+ years of combined live performance experience, GABnDAD has become one of the North Country’s premier country acts. From county fairs and music festivals to breweries, restaurants, campgrounds, concert series, weddings, and private events, they’ve built a reputation for delivering authentic country music, powerful harmonies, and an engaging live show that connects with audiences of all ages.
