Gabriel Ríos, born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, moved to Belgium at the age of 17 to study painting at the Luca School of Arts in Ghent. After playing in various bands and recording a string of singles, he made a name for himself in 2003 with his first album Ghostboy, which included the megahit “Broad Day Light.” Collaborating with artists such as Jo Bogaert (Technotronic), jazz pianist Jef Neve, Kobe Proesmans (The Colorist Orchestra), and multi-instrumentalist/producer Ruben Samama, Ríos has released a series of eclectic albums.
