Tom Gaebel is a German singer and leader of a big band named after himself. He changed the spelling of his last name, avoiding the umlaut to give it a more international sheen. In addition to singing and arranging music, Gaebel writes lyrics in English.
Tom Gaebel was born on 13 January 1975 in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany into a highly musical family. His younger brother Denis Gäbel plays tenor saxophone in the Tom Gaebel big band. Tom started with music lessons at an early age and he plays several instruments, including drums, violin, trombone and piano. Even during his high-school days, he was a member of various bands, including two big bands and a rock band called Goresaw. He attended the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and in October 2004, Gaebel received a major in jazz singing from the Conservatorium. After performing and singing in various big bands, such as The Young Sinatras and the Tobias Kremer Big Band, he formed his own group in 2005.
His debut album, "Introducing: Myself" (2005) featured a mixture of standards and a few of Gaebel's own compositions. In numerous concerts and TV appearances, Gaebel proved himself to be a popular swing and big band leader as well as a dynamic entertainer. A live DVD, Live in Concert, followed in 2006. Gaebel's second album, Good Life, released in 2007, featured more original songs. His third album "Don't Wanna Dance" includes numbers influenced by soul and the Motown sound.
Gaebel is also known as an adept writer; he contributes a blog to his official MySpace site[3].
