Adrianne Gonzalez Biography

Adrianne E. Gonzalez (born 1977) is an American musician, composer, music video director, writer, and painter. She formerly used Adrianne as her stage name; she now uses AG.

Career

Gonzalez was born and raised in Miami, where she was a chorister and taught herself piano and guitar, taking up the latter at seventeen.

She has said of her beginnings:

I was in choir from a very early age. It was kind of my life since I was about eight. But I didn't know what that would mean for me when I was an adult, or as a career. I didn't even know what a career was in high school. But when I was in high school I heard the Indigo Girls for the first time. And I was like, "Okay! I wanna do that." It was definitely a pivotal moment. The first time I heard "Love Will Come to You," that's when I knew.

She went on to obtain a degree in music production and engineering from Boston's Berklee College of Music before moving to Los Angeles, where she is now based.

Soon after settling in Los Angeles, Gonzaelz signed a publishing deal with Lionel Conway at the Mosaic Media Group. She is now published by the Pen Music Group. The ASCAP database lists her as the author or co-author of more than 100 songs. She has collaborated with songwriters including David Batteau, Jeff Trott, Jon Lind, Rodney Alejandro, Anne Preven, and Scott Cutler. Her work features regularly on television (Lifetime, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Dirt, Men in Trees, One Tree Hill, Grey's Anatomy, Guiding Light, In Plain Sight, Witchblade), and in films (Michael Clancy's Eulogy, Harvey Kahn's The Deal).

Gonzalez won the USA Songwriting Competition Grand Prize in 1999 for "Say 'em Strong"; the Boston Music Award for Best New Singer-Songwriter in 2000; and a SESAC Television and Film Composers Award in 2009 for her contribution to Guiding Light. She has also been a finalist in the Coca-Cola New Music Awards and the Lilith Fair Talent Search.

In addition to songwriting, Gonzalez has maintained a busy performance and recording schedule. She has supported Jeff Buckley, Jackson Browne, and Bonnie Raitt, among others, and released seven albums and two EPs under her own names (Adrianne until 2011, AG since 2012). In 2008, she joined with Kyler England, Rob Giles, and Gabriel Mann to form The Rescues. She now divides her time between her work with the band and solo projects.
