Keshi - GABRIELMonikered as Keshi (a phonetic play on his name Casey Luong), the Vietnamese American artist from Houston is set to release his debut album, GABRIEL, via Island Records. This most personal effort is a fusion of Keshi's real self and his artistic persona. The songs are written from the lens of Casey and Keshi and speak on both his personal life and of allowing the ego of Keshi to take over. The album was co produced by Keshi and Elie Rizk.
