About Counterclock
Band Members: Gaby Lead - Vocals Ale - Rhythm Guitar Lino - Lead Guitar David - Bass Garry - Drums Counterclock is the very embodiment of rock ‘n’ roll. You can hear it in the band’s self-titled debut album produced by Jeff “Diesel” Dalziel (Edwin, Thornley, Tupelo Honey). Counterclock keeps its focus on the prize: radio-friendly pop songs — often disguised in fierce, boisterous rock ‘n’ roll mixed with emotive power ballads. Led by singer-guitarist-keyboardist Gaby Tanielian, the process for this collection of songs started when Gaby flew to Toronto to co-write for the first time with Jeff Dalziel and Dane Hartsell and came up with the ballad “Remember Your Name.” “I loved co-writing,” enthused Gaby who then extended his two-week trip to almost three months and wrote with Christopher Ward (Alannah Myles’ “Black Velvet”), Andrea Wasse, Dan Davidson (Tupelo honey), Nicole Hughes, Chris Perry, Pete Lesperance among others. “Every song I was with two or three different writers,” says Gaby. “I shared stories about my life, and with each story a song came.” Gaby then took all these songs to Jeff’s studio in downtown Toronto. “Jeff was amazing to work with. He’s the first producer that has understood exactly the way I imagined the songs.” As the album came together, so did his band, all hand-picked from existing Montreal bands clubs —bassist Stevie Trixx, guitarist Alessandro Greco and drummer Gary Ritchie. “I wanted people that are serious, hard working and are living the dream.”
