Adult Onset Goth

James Bookert created San Gabriel as a side-project while working in an Austin, Texas liquor store. What started between tours playing banjo with his former band Whiskey Shivers quickly grew into an acclaimed synth pop-project.

Catching the attention of Share It Music and Sub Pop Publishing in the past year, San Gabriel has had music featured in Love Island USA and Wayfinders, and toured the US as San Gabriel and also as a member of Goth Babe’s live band.

Adult Onset Goth is the follow up EP to San Gabriel’s debut album Nights and Weekends and features Bookert’s signature dreamy synths, washy guitars and hooky melodies. San Gabriel skillfully tows the line between 80s nostalgia and modern indie-pop creating songs that feel equal parts classic and fresh.
