Singer

Hertfordshire

I’m a pop/soul singer, songwriter and guitarist. I studied music for 5 years and received a bachelor of science degree in 2018. I’ve performed at wine bars, festivals, pubs, private events and many more events. I love to take risks as an artist and always try something new especially with songwriting. It’s exciting to see what’s around the corner.

Abbie is always a huge hit with guests at both of our pubs. Her sets are eclectic and wide ranging in appeal which ensures all ages are entertained. She is the perfect act for chilled out drinking and dining and I would have no hesitation in recommending her. In addition Abbie is highly professional, low maintenance and very easy to deal with. A lovely person and always most welcome at our venues.
