Abi Farrell was raised in Oxford, UK on a soundtrack of vocal powerhouses spanning the likes of Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Candi Staton and Carole King. Named 'an artist on the rise' by Blues and Soul, Abi is known for her effortlessly pure voice and lyrical dexterity, which are equally at home creating both moving, introspective ballads and high-energy anthems.
With an appeal that transcends generations and a modern pop sensibility, Abi's songwriting explores themes of identity, self-esteem, empowerment, gender equality, mental health and social mobility.
Abi has garnered rave reviews from the UK & international soul scene since releasing singles in collaboration with Big AC Records (<a href="spotify:artist:7DGzcNoNqaCLgCLhldp2jg" data-name="Nick Corbin">Nick Corbin</a>) including: 'I Will See You Through', 'Empowered', 'Don't Follow Me' and 'Stepping Out Of Your Shadow', produced by Mitch Ayling (<a href="spotify:artist:4sxtLUswMXhoDrec7zc6i0" data-name="The Milk">The Milk</a>). Her releases have been championed by Craig Charles on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music, who has praised Abi's sound as 'proper soul for the 21st century'. 'Don't Follow Me', a social commentary on misogyny, was premiered by Robert Elms on BBC Radio London and saw Abi being invited to BBC Radio 4's Loose Ends to perform live in session.
Abi has opened stages for Izo Fitzroy, Dee C Lee and Stone Foundation, has headlined the BBC Introducing stage at Oxfordshire's The Big Feastival, and has sold out multiple venues across the UK to date. Spring 2025 will see the release of brand new singles '47 Days' and 'Never Be'.
