MATT DRISCOLL: GABY MORENO PLAYS DOYLE'S TOMORROW >>>
How’d you learn to speak English? Probably the usual, American boring way, huh? Your parents probably repeated words like potty, diaper and teddy bear over and over and over â€" and eventually you caught on. One day you put the bear on the potty and said something remarkable like “Bear potty!†and you’re parents had never been prouder. Well, not to make you feel average, but Gaby Moreno â€" originally from Guatemala â€"learned to speak English by taking in the timeless blues of luminaries like BB King and Robert Johnson.
If you don’t already feel a little inadequate, perhaps this is the time to mention that Moreno also plays a mean axe, and since moving to L.A. in 2001 to attend The Musician’s Institute, Moreno’s one-of-a-kind songwriting and captivating presence have had her on the fast track to, well, whatever it is that musicians strive for in the age of the Internet. (The cover of the Rolling Stone is sooo outdated, no?)
Check out Moreno and Tacoma’s Vicci Martinez tomorrow night at Doyle’s in what can only be considered a perfect pairing.
