Moving between the landscapes of fictional Runion, North Carolina, and Nashville's Music Row, Gabriel's Songbook follows a songwriter and singer through his search for fame and belonging. As he juggles ambition, love, and occasional despair, he finds that his dream of success and his love of music become increasingly at odds.
