About Me

I'm a guitarist, singer and composer from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Throughout my career, I tried expressed my musical creativity using her guitar and her voice, creating original compositions that blend sensitivity, emotion, technique and intuition. My music draws on a rich mixture of influences, from Argentinean folklore, the contemporary language of the twentieth century, jazz, tango, and Brazilian music.

I have some soloist records show an original, deep and “feminine” song-writer, who has a “virtuoso” way to play 7 strings guitar. In a tradition of guitarists and writers that can be tracked from the roots and innovations of Atahualpa Yupanqui to the minimalism of Juana Molina, Zabala takes traditional, classical and pop elements to a personal and newest step in local music.

Since 2006 I perform at international venues with the duo “Las Morochas” (UK) and as a soloist artist in Germany, Switzaerland, Spain. In 2008-2009 I was part of “International Guitar night”, a project created by American guitarrst Brian Gore wherein four internationally renowed guitarist offer an evening of their own music as well as collaborations among themselves. I participated in three different tours – UK, Canada, United States – the last sharing the bill with renowned guitarists Benjamin Verdery (USA), Pierre Bensusan (France) and Brian Gore (USA).

In adition to my performance tours I also present workshops and master classes focusing on Argentinean music, songwriting and arragements for guitar.
