on September 24, 2026 at Revolver Recordings in Westlake, California

Last week, we were so grateful to be among the fortunate few to hear the first seven songs from the forthcoming debut album by Canadian artist Annabel Gutherz. The occasion was a listening party and acoustic performance at Revolver Recordings in Westlake, California.

We had a chance to say hello to Annabel before things got underway, and this girl is a pistol! She was engaging, quick-witted, and thoughtful, terrific attributes for a performer.

The crowd clearly enjoyed the songs, with enthusiastic applause between tracks, but when Annabel got up to sing, the room really came alive. Her unique and powerful voice jumped right out at you, and she had everyone mesmerized from the first note to the last.

You could also tell that this project has been a real labor of love for everyone involved. Annabel took the time to thank the people who have been working alongside her, giving each of them sweet little nicknames along the way. It was obvious how much the music and the people behind it mean to her.

It was a great night from start to finish, and I'm really looking forward to the release of the album, which is coming soon!

A big thank-you to our friend David Helfant for inviting us and introducing us to this exciting new artist. I have a feeling we'll be hearing a lot more from Annabel Gutherz!
