A little over 10 years ago, Gaby moved to Los Angeles, USA and after winning John Lennon Songwriting Contest in 2006, she released her debut album Still The Unknown in 2008. Later that year she was asked to write the theme song for NBC's Parks and Recreation (co-written with Vincent Jones), that was nominated for an Emmy Award. Latina Magazine acclaimed her Best New Latin Artist 2010, and she was the support act for both Ani DiFranco's and Tracy Chapman's world tours in 2009 and 2010.
Also in 2010, she participated in one of the most prestigious and long time rock festivals in Denmark, Roskilde, where she emotively sang in front of 17,000 people accompanied by the Youth Radio Symphony of Denmark, directed by the legendary pianist, composer, producer and Beach Boys collaborator Van Dyke Parks. The next year without any push or support from a label, her independently released second album llIustrated Songs reached #1 in sales on Latin Itunes and Amazon Latin. That led her to many concerts in the U.S. and Europe.
In 2012, Gaby Moreno entered into the Latin-American music scene, thanks to the invitation extended by her fellow countryman and one of the most successful Latin American artists of all time, Ricardo Arjona, to record the duet Fuiste Tu.
The song won wide approval with a Latin audience as well as two Latin Grammy nominations for Song of The Year and Recording Of The Year. Subsequently Gaby released her third album Postales which retains the same swing as her previous records but is sung completely in Spanish.
