Sid The Cat PresentsGabe Goodman
11/1/2024 at Genghis Cohen
Gabe Goodman is a producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Los Angeles. Originally hailing from the suburbs of Boston, he got his first guitar at five years old and immediately began writing songs and participating in the local Guitarmageddon contests at Guitar Center (he never advanced past the entry round). He was even a guest on Bill Cosby’s Kids Say The Darndest Things, performing some of his original work that Cosby himself refers to as “volcanic.”
Goodman’s compass always seemed to point towards the arts. His mom would take shifts off of her job at Old Navy to take him to auditions in New York City, determined for him to find success as a child actor. After playing in bands in high school, he eventually left Brandeis University at age 20 to join 2010s synth-pop act Magic Man, walking out in the middle of a financial accounting final to embark on a summer tour supporting Panic! At the Disco—a sort of Jewish, early-Instagram-era twist on an Almost Famous-style tale. He would eventually move to New York, where he began releasing solo music in 2018 with his somber Dismissing the Gardener, and began working with longtime friend S. Holden Jaffe on his Del Water Gap project. Together, the pair wrote and produced “Ode To A Conversation Stuck In Your Throat,” which became a pandemic-era breakout hit. It was through his work with Del Water Gap that Goodman began to eye a career in production, going on to work with acts such as Maggie Rogers and helming projects for indie darlings such as Field Medic and Anjimile.
