After four years of touring the UK supporting the likes of Newton Faulkner, Nizlopi, Narina Pallot, Polly Paulusma, Mr hudson, Erik Hassle, Tommy reily. Abi Lanigan has reached a defining point in her life. Armed with an acoustic guitar and a spellbinding voice, Abi is ready to take on the big guns with a roster of new songs and a renewed passion for playing live.Think melodies and vibe of KT Tunstall, but with the quirkiness of Imogen Heap or Regina Spektor, maybe a touch of Avril Lavigne for good measure and you're somewhere close to a portrait of the twenty year old singer-songwriter from the UK. Following on from her fan favourites 'Hold You Tight' and 'Miles And Miles', previously released on Cherry Bang Records, Abi's new material is getting a great reception at live shows. With the same heart felt lyrics and melodic instrumentation, Abi's approach to writing music has changed since she first started out at the tender age of 17."The songs i'm writing at the minute are much more experimental both structurally and melodically than they were a few years ago. I fell into the trap of using certain chord changes and keys, so I thought, right, lets try something different, try an approach I wouldn't usually go for, and it seems to have worked for me!"With shows booked around the UK, Abi is a force to be reckoned with. Catch her at a date near you and feel free to buy her a malibu and coke or two if you're near the bar![LOVEMYFLASH]
