Abel Ibanez G. is a Sydney-based Mexican songwriter, musician and singer. His songs aspire to provide a certain company and comfort on those times when people experience loneliness.

He released his first album "De Vuelta en Casa" in 2019, and in 2022, he released "Extrana Compania", his second record to the likes of international press, including KEXP in Seattle, and triple J and SBS in Sydney.

For this tour, Abel is presenting acoustic arrangements of his most popular songs. He will be touring Australia from March to the beginning of May, and continue his tour through Canada, USA and Mexico.

“Hearing this and some more tracks from Abel Ibanez G.’s catalogue has me pining for a coastal roadtrip, no matter the weather or season. It’s got a carefree vibe and this kind of instant nostalgia which isn’t easy to capture.” –David Ruby Howe, Triple J

“I absolutely adore the song ‘Quedate Conmigo’. The production is gritty and shimmery at the same time, and the vocals have that plated reverb which reminds me of early Arthur Verocai. It feels like a track that you’ll love years after listening to it.
–Jerry Ijale Agbinya, Triple J

“Abel’s excellent ability as a lyricist is evident.” –Pablo Acuna, KEXP

“Abel can create atmospheres, from a rock inspired by the English bands of the 60s and 70s, but with a flavor of Spanish rock of the 80s and 90s.”
–Carlos Molina, SBS

Evan Buckley (The Burley Griffin) grew up in Canberra, homeschooled in a religious fundamentalist cult, and has since hitch hiked and toured through 37 American states, exorcising and befriending his demons along the way. His most recent US tour took place during the 2016 election and his newest songs reflect the absurdity of the American dream. The third Burley Griffin album, Lost Limbs, was launched with a twelve piece, beefed up band on June 26th 2021 to a sold out theatre at The Street, celebrating a vinyl packed with moving songs of loss and joy.
