Vedder Gabriel and the group Too Loud Band released their spitfire song and music video for “First Love.”

It is quite catchy, upbeat, and fun. The vibrant music video for “First Love” was directed by Brett Chapman. The guitar solo midway through is electrifying and Vedder Gabriel nails the lead vocals.

Candlebox hit Phoenix last week (Oct. 22) and welcomed a very special guest onstage as 13-year-old TikTok star Vedder Gabriel came onstage to perform "Far Behind" with the band.

It was the culmination of a very big day for the young musician, who first got a chance to hang out with the band prior to the show and get a few pointers from frontman Kevin Martin as they rehearsed. In addition to "Far Behind," Gabriel also worked through a cover of Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" with Candlebox, as can be seen below.

CANDLEBOX frontman Kevin Martin had the audience at the Crescent Ballroom in Phoenix, Arizona on its feet Thursday night (October 21) when he welcomed 12-year-old TikTok star Vedder Gabriel on stage to perform the band's hit song "Far Behind".

Martin and Gabriel had met previously on Instagram, which later led to a rockin' TikTok duet that caught the attention of thousands of fans. Martin quickly invited Gabriel on stage to perform the song, which led to a standing ovation.
