I am influenced by everything around me. It's corny, deal with it. Who I'm listening to: Sarah Harmer, Tragically Hip, Corb Lund, Bob Dylan, Tracy Chapman, the Rolling Stones, Molly Johnson, the Weakerthans, Age of Daze, Jonah, Jill Barber, Matt Mays, Reba MacEntire, LeAnn Womack, Wintersleep, Our Lady Peace, Julian Austin, Strippers Union, Barenaked Ladies, Jann Arden, Dolly Parton, the Odds, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, Arcade Fire, Victoria Banks, Patti Griffin, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Gretchen Wilson, Jully Black, k-os, Led Zepplin, Neil Young. That's the short list.
Sounds Like
rain softly splashing into a puddle on a summer's day; the wind in the weathered rocks of a mountain top; a soft whisper in your ear from a ghost of yesterday; light falling through the coloured tree world of fall, the scent of death and rebirth all around you.
Born and raised in Boiestown, New Brunswick, Canada, Abby grew up in a family of musicians; she took piano lessons and taught herself guitar. A songwriter since the age of twelve, a biologist, canoe guide, and chartered herbalist, Abby has a thirst to learn, travel and experience. This restlessness is evident in her music, which often paints a picture of Canada’s wilderness along with the wilderness of human emotion. A born storyteller, Abby’s simple Canadian folk style is simply an extension of herself and her observations of the world we inhabit.
Her self-titled EP, released in August 2008, has been long anticipated by her fans. The first track, "Shrugging off my skin," was selected as a semi-finalist in both the 2008 UK Songwriting Competition and the Australian International Songwriting Competition.
Abby currently resides in London, UK.
