Gabriel Bondage biography [progarchives.com]
Gabriel Bondage originated from Morton Grove, Illinois, USA around 1973 and continued playing up to 1984. Bands members also had various other side projects up until 1984.Their music can be best described as spacey, great Heavy Prog like organ and keyboard work and along with their UK neighbors, Gravy Train, delivered an underlying religious theme to their music. Most sources show the band formed in 1973 and their first album Angel Dust was in released in 1975. This is seen my many to be their more inferior work. Their follow up Another Trip To Earth was released in 1977 to wider acclaim. They developed quite a strong cult following in the States especially live but sadly never released any other studio albums. The good news is they have reformed and are working on new material, some of which is available on their facebook and myspace websites.

Notable personnel over the years are Ron Schwartz( Piano, Organ & Synths), Bill Wiswiewski( Vocals, Sax & Clarinet), Larry Biernacki( Vocals & Guitar), Tony Stram ( Vocals & Bass), Rex Bundy( Lead vocals,Guitar, Drums & Piano)
