ABOUT BLANK
“My music is self-therapy. The orange notebook were I used to write the lyrics was a part of my soul. Now it has become an album.”
About Blank creates intimate indie folk built around fragile melodies, atmospheric guitars and songs that feel like pages torn from a private diary.
Behind the moniker is Gabriele Dalena, a singer-songwriter from Southern Italy. Inspired by the emotional honesty of folk and alternative songwriting, he began writing songs as a teenager, filling notebooks with reflections and memories.
Those songs found their true shape on stage, where delicate songwriting opened into long, immersive guitar improvisations. A live performance on YouTube caught the attention of Beautiful Losers, leading to the production of his debut album.
Following the release of his self-titled debut in 2022 and the collaboration single Mad World with Are You Real?, About Blank continues to explore the meeting point between introspective songwriting and expansive sonic landscapes.
