Classically trained in voice, Abby writes and performs intricate melodies showcasing a mesmerising fusion of folk, jazz, blues and indie. With a sprinkle of influence from Eva Cassidy and the whimsical art-folk of Aurora, Abby creates a deeply moving world in which her audiences resonate. Her intuitive ability to capture moments of conflict and beauty, compares the ebb and flow of natural processes with human perspective.
