ABIGAIL LAPELL

Call it Prairie Noir or Canadiana Desert Rock: Abigail Lapell sings haunting,gorgeous modern folk songs. The Toronto songwriter and multi-instrumentalist returns with Anniversary, an evocative collection of original love songs. Co-produced with Great Lake Swimmers’ Tony Dekker, the album was recorded at 200-year-old St Mark’s Church in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. Dekker helped shape the sessions’ spooky, resonant sound and lent his voice to a couple of spellbinding duets.

Dekker and Lapell assembled a stellar cast of musicians to support Lapell’s power-house vocals, piano, harmonica and signature fingerstyle guitar. The ensemble’s sensitive, orchestral country-jazz arrangements reveal the depth of Lapell’s musical palette, balancing upbeat earworms with elegiac ballads.

Over the past five years and three captivating albums, Lapell has won three Canadian Folk Music Awards, hit number one on Canadian folk radio and reached a staggering 48 million + streams across digital music platforms. She tours widely across North America and Europe, performing on vocals, piano and finger-style guitar.

Anniversary is out May 10, 2024 on Outside Music.
