From fictitious chanteuse, Jodie Cooper on Australian breakthrough drama series ‘Heartbreak High’ ABI TUCKER'S journey has seen a maturity develop in both her song writing and performance. Abi Tucker sings with a fragility of style but with a confidence inviting comparisons to the likes of Martha Wainwright or Joni Mitchell; This gal kicks the proverbial with a raw and edgy persona that’s impossible to ignore, taking the listener on a journey through love and loss, heartbreak and joy, together with sharply noted observations of a world known and imagined. Stand by for this live London preview of the aptly titled ‘Rough Diamond’, With a big dose of Blues and Soul entwined with a healthy Folk sensibility, this richly-woven collection of songs highlights Tucker’s trademark smoky voice and is tipped to put Abi on all the best new lists of the year.
