December 16, 2020 From a little town on the border of Arkansas and Oklahoma, Gabrielle Mooney seemed like any other girl. The daughter of a farmer, she would travel with the family band on Sundays, singing “He Leadeth Me” and, hours later, fall asleep on a church pew. But Gabrielle had a secret. “I’ve always been a rebel,” she says, laughing. Monday through Friday she was smuggling records from My Chemical Romance, Hinder, and Sick Puppies into the house. At 17, she joined a Southern rock band and traveled to dive bars in the Southeast. “Country music would talk about what I knew,” she says, “but rock music would speak to who I was, the emotions and feelings.”
