Timeline
Gabriel Eduardo Saporta (born October 11, 1979) is an Uruguayan-American musician and entrepreneur.
From the years 2005 until 2015, he was the lead vocalist and founder of the electropop band Cobra Starship.
The idea for Cobra Starship came to him during a trip in the Arizona desert in 2005.
Saporta produced and recorded the first Cobra album by himself with S*A*M & Sluggo.
An early helpful development for Cobra Starship was when Midtown's management company set Saporta up with an opportunity to record a song for the soundtrack to the 2006 action film Snakes on a Plane, which became a minor hit.
From 2006 to 2014, Cobra Starship released four full-length albums, and scored two double-platinum Top 10 hits ("Good Girls Go Bad" and "You Make Me Feel"), as well as one gold record for "Hot Mess".
Coincidentally, Saporta made his acting debut a few years later in the season 5 finale of Gossip Girl.
By 2007, Cobra Starship was a full band and started touring the country.
Cobra's eclectic sound allowed them to tour with acts as diverse as 30 Seconds to Mars, Fall Out Boy, and Travie McCoy.
On June 5, 2010, MTV aired an episode of When I Was 17, which focused on Gabe Saporta and discussed his life as a teenager.
Saporta has hosted and been a correspondent for various music-related TV shows including being a presenter at the VMAs, a US correspondent for The EMAs and BBC1, and hosting several countdown shows on Fuse.
In 2012, Cobra Starship was the main support for Justin Bieber on his entire South American stadium tour.
In March 2013, Gabe Saporta was featured on "Make It Out This Town", the first single by American rapper Eve's fourth album Lip Lock.
In response to this renewed interest, Midtown reunited for a secret show in Brooklyn and to headline the Skate & Surf Festival in Asbury Park, NJ in 2014.
In 2022, Midtown announced several dates in support of My Chemical Romance in the fall of that year, alongside two headlining shows at the Starland Ballroom.
After Midtown, Gabe Saporta wanted to start a project that was more light-hearted and whose music could incorporate diverse electronic influences.
On November 10, 2015, after nearly ten years and two Billboard Hot 100 top 10 hits, Saporta announced that the band would stop its work, and that he would be focusing on helping other musicians through his new venture, The Artist Group.
Prior to Cobra Starship, Saporta had been the lead singer, bassist, and lyricist for the punk band Midtown.
Gabe Saporta was born in Montevideo, Uruguay.
His family is Jewish; his grandparents and great-grandparents escaped Europe during World War II and settled in Uruguay.
When he was four years old, he moved with his parents to New York City.
At an early age, Saporta developed a passion for music, which became his escape and salvation from a tumultuous upbringing.
Saporta fell in love with music because of its ability to deliver messages and connect people.
His first love was hip hop, but soon after he discovered punk rock and started going to shows to see bands such as Gorilla Biscuits, Fugazi, and Pavement, it was not long before Saporta, along with his brother Ricky, started to put on his own shows and put out his own records.
When he was 16 years old, Saporta "joined his first band-- the appropriately titled Humble Beginnings" as a bass player.
While in college at Rutgers University, he started the pop punk band Midtown.
As the vocalist, lyricist, and bassist in Midtown, Saporta attracted widespread attention.
The group released one EP and three LP albums: The Sacrifice of Life, Save the World, Lose the Girl, Living Well Is the Best Revenge and Forget What You Know, respectively.
Midtown encountered legal troubles with its first label after releasing its second album.
It was during this time that Saporta who "was quite the businessman" decided he wanted to understand the music business from the other side and started managing a band named Armor For Sleep.
As Armor For Sleep became successful, Saporta made a deal to merge his fledgling company into Crush Management, who would also manage Midtown.
Crush later went on to launch Cobra Starship with Saporta.
After disbanding, Midtown developed a cult-like following.
On his Beats1 Radio show in November 2015, Gabe Saporta announced that he would no longer be performing or putting out new music.
Saporta and business associate Mike Carden have announced the formation of a talent management firm, T∆G // The Artist Group, which is expected to commence operations in the first quarter of 2016.
Saporta has explained that now he wants to work behind the scenes and help younger artists see their dreams come true.
In 2022, Gabe Saporta joined beatBread's Artist Advocacy Council, which provides "critical advice" to the independent music funding platform.
Saporta joins Mike Caren (Artist Partner Group), Dave Dederer (founding member of The Presidents of the United States of America), Diana Rodriguez (Criteria Entertainment), Kei Henderson (Third & Hayden), Ray Daniels (Raydar, LLC), and Nick Jarjour (Hipgnosis).
