Gunnar Gehl is one of the most promising young artists of recent years. Gunnar was born on April 23, 2001, in the southern California town of Newport Beach. The boy showed his extraordinary musical talent very quickly.
So, he began playing music for the first time at the age of seven. The initial instruments he learned to play were the acoustic guitar, which would later be associated with the lion's share of his acoustic music, and the piano. Gunnar started his musical career as a member of local bands, sometimes giving small solo performances. He met L.A. group PrettyMuch while playing in small-town concerts. The guy began to feel himself an independent musician in collaboration with this group. So, he went on their North American Funktion Tour with them performing as the opening act for all 22 of the band's performances, after which the guy gained self-confidence and decided to start his solo career.
Although the musician had done many covers of the songs of famous representatives of the pop scene, the real beginning of his musical career is usually considered to be the summer-autumn of 2018. Among the performers whose songs Gunner wrote covers on, are Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber, Shawn Mendes, Khalid, Juice Wrld. By the way, despite the beginning of the release of singles under his authoring, Gehl claims that he plans to do much more covers of a wide variety of artists. Without much difficulty, one can assume that the guy was 17 years old at the time of the beginning of his solo career. The musician met producer Julian Fefel in Los Angeles immediately after the tour with PrettyMuch. Gunner temporarily moves to Los Angeles to concentrate on recording his debut song. The result of this work was the song "Ocean Blue," released in October 2018. The song immediately gained widespread popularity. So, the song has gained more than 100,000 plays on Spotify in less than three weeks. The song itself received a good response from music critics and allowed the musician to gain basic recognition, bringing the artist the first listeners.
The new studio single, Outta My Mind, was out in less than a month after the first one. The artist continued to work on singles throughout 2019, performing in parallel at various venues. So, the guy took part in the WE Day charity tour, performing in different parts of the world. During this time, he manages to get into the real mainstream. So, the leading music critics around the world told about Gunther: "catchy and flirty pop", "urban singer-songwriter", "accessible yet dense sound", "teen pop superstar" - all these descriptions have been given to the newly minted singer by reputable publications and music critics. Also, we would like to note that Gunnar received many different proposals for collaboration with numerous artists; however, he said that he himself would like to perform together with the singer Dua Lipa.
Gunnar reimagines his relationship with the recording industry during this experience. At the moment, if you visit a musician's account on any specialized platform, you will only find 2020 singles. The musician began to collaborate with VEVO. As of today, there are seven music videos, each of which was released primarily on this site. The musician is posting nine of his singles to all of his accounts in 2020, allowing fans and analysts to suggest that the musician may soon consider releasing a full-length studio album. We would even dare to assume that the quarantine measures associated with the 2020 pandemic were beneficial to the musician, given the amount of material released in 2020. For obvious reasons, the singer had to cancel his entire performance schedule, and so far, no new tours have been announced yet. Nevertheless, we would like to wish the young musician endless inspiration to delight us with new releases and performances soon.
