Abi Moore
Like that pair of shoes you pull on time and time again, because they're made to measure and gloriously comfortable, Abi Moore's music harks back to those times when things were hand-crafted and made to last.
With her foundations rooted in acoustic music, Abi's songs are accessible and full of warmth, reminiscent of the 60's/ 70's songwriters - Elton John, Sting, Lennon & McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Fleetwood Mac, Bob Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel. Add in Abi's modern- day relevance, cynical grit, a few glances to Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow and Karine Polwart and then lace it all up with thought provoking, observational, truthful and socially aware lyrics. If that doesn't get you hooked, her astounding voice certainly will.
