Since 1991, Italian singer-songwriter, composer and musician, Lorenzo Gabanizza has been building a genre-crossing musical repertoire aimed at challenging listeners’ expectations of popular music. In that time, Lorenzo has amassed more than 200K Spotify streams and 11K monthly listeners, thanks to his chart-topping songs like “Someone Waiting at Their Door,” “Roses In The Sky,” and “All The Words We Never Said.”

Fans of Lorenzo’s music will be excited to learn that he will add to his diverse catalog, releasing “You’re Not There,” on October 22, 2021. A tribute to Lorenzo’s mother, “You’re Not There” features multi-platinum selling vocalist, Jeff Christie and guitar by Top 5 Billboard charting artist, Rusty Wright. It is a story about loss, inspired by Lorenzo’s experience of losing his mother, last year.

Lorenzo’s love of singing began at an early age, and Christie’s music was an integral part of Lorenzo’s childhood as his first discovery of the English language came from the classics like Christie’s “Yellow River” and “San Bernadino.” He would sing them to his mother, who also adored Jeff’s music. When his mother passed away, Lorenzo reached out to Jeff for some closure, through a song that expressed his feelings of grief, regret, and acceptance. When Jeff heard the demo, he jumped on board to sing vocals.

A varied mix of talented musicians — Snake Davis (Paul McCartney, Culture Club), Rusty Wright, Lorenzo’s brother, Max Gabanizza (Chuck Berry), and Katey Brooks — make up the incredible team of artists who worked on “You’re Not There.”

Mixing was done by Peter Hall, and the legendary Greg Calbi did the mastering. Greg Calbi is a 62-time Grammy winner engineer and has worked with an impressive list of artists such as Bob Dylan, George Harrison, and David Bowie. “You’re Not There” is released by MTS Records. A music video has also been shot for early October release.
