Josh Gabriel of American electronic music DJ duo Gabriel & Dresden took to social media to announce some bittersweet news. Josh opened up about having a heart attack several weeks ago. Thankfully he is ok and on the mend, but to him, this was a sign that the feelings burnout, exhaustion, and pushing himself to the limit was not a healthy or sustainable state of being. Thus, he is taking some time off to recover, decompress, and is looking forward to positive forthcoming changes. Read his full statement below:
“The hardest part is the reality that I must step back from touring until I have recovered. I’m going to miss playing for you and seeing everyone’s smiling faces on the dancefloor. Now it’s time for me to focus on my physical and mental health.”

Dave Dresden will continue to tour and perform on his own in Josh’s absence. We are all wishing Josh a speedy recovery during this well deserved time off.
