Genre-blending British/Turkish songwriter and producer, Gazel has shared an acoustic version of her debut single, ‘Pointing At The Moon’. The release comes ahead of her headline show, at London’s St Pancras Church, later this month.

The new acoustic version follows the release of her second single, ‘Mina’s Hymn’, and comes ahead of her headline show at London’s St Pancras Church on the 27th of February 2019. Tickets are available now, and can be purchased here.

Speaking about the track, Gazel said: “The title ‘Pointing At The Moon’ is from a text by the Indian mystic Osho that talks about mistaking symbols for reality. The song is about how looking for meaning in life will always get you stuck in a trap of words. This stripped back version is the first time I’ve recorded a song of mine acoustically and I really enjoyed singing and playing violin on it.”

‘Pointing At The Moon’ is taken from Gazel’s upcoming album, ‘Gazel’s Book Of Souls’, in which each track represents a different ‘soul’ from the protagonist’s unconscious mind, forming a fluid, provocative and deeply symbolic narrative exploring dreams, illusion, individualism and the great mystery of the human mind.

Since 2017, Gazel has enjoyed headline sold-out shows at venues including The Lexington, Borderline, The Pickle Factory, The Waiting Room, and Birthdays, as well as support shows at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire and the Hammersmith Apollo. Gazel’s live shows have become an unmissable immersive experience of visual and sonic performance reflecting lyrical narratives and characters.
