“Prepare yourself for one memorable (+ chilly) experience as Peninsula high schoolers, families and companies plunge in the ice cold Pacific in outrageous costumes in support of local high schoolers impacted by suicide. Belly flops are encouraged and wet suits are (sigh) allowed. Afterwards, enjoy a savory cup of coffee, tea, or hot cocoa along with some tasty pastries (generously donated by our friends at Peets!). Help fundraise and participate in this event to help support and empower teens impacted by suicide in our community! 16 year old singer/songwriter Gaby Castro will perform original music. Youth band Eternal Downpour will also perform! ”

“On March 22, Gaby Castro's debut music album became available on iTunes. Titled "Free Spirit," the album was many months in the making. She says, "I wrote my first song when I was 12 years old, and got the crazy idea to actually make an album when I was in eighth grade. It has been such a long road, starting as a lyricist and now being a performing singer-songwriter, but I’m ready to keep going, and enjoy all the stops I make."”

— Castilleja News, Casti kudos: Gaby Castro

“As mentioned in an earlier article, on March 22 Gaby Castro '13's debut music album became available on iTunes. Titled "Free Spirit," the music combines notes from rock, pop, and country into a tale of self-discovery and exploration. Last week Gaby was featured in La Oferta, the most highly honored bilingual newspaper in the U.S. A full-page Spanish article describes Gaby's background, as well as her love of music. "I am very grateful for the support of my family and friends, and the opportunities I've had so far have served me well. With my album 'Free Spirit' I want to change the world, just because there is hope and love, and you can find it. I am saddened today to hear some songs that are on the radio, which are very inappropriate for our youth, focusing on sex, drugs and violence. I do not think young people should hear this. If you want a better world we must begin to teach something better, and that is what I leave in my songs," says Gaby.”

Questions

Ask Gaby Castro anything...

Q: Gaby, which is your favorite song? When you write your song?

A: Hello there! It's very hard for me to pick a favorite song that I've written since they're all very special to me. However, my song "Stronger" tends to be an audience favorite and it's very dear to my heart. I wrote it when I was 14 years old as a thank-you to one of my closest friends. :)
