Gabin Dabiré was a singer, guitarist, kora player, and composer from Burkina Faso (former Upper Volta) who has lived in Italy since 1975.

Born in Bobo-Dioulasso in the African state of Burkina Faso, Dabiré's first experiences in music were lessons from the great masters of the traditional music of Burkina Faso. In 1975 he traveled to Denmark, where he was exposed to European and contemporary music. In 1976 he toured in Italy and afterwards embarked on a study trip of chordophones and Indian percussion.
