  • Bio

    ..My Sonicbids Calendar.. .... 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. ......Buy Abby's CD!.. .. ..

  • 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.
