Abbie Thomas – “Not Gonna Lie”
Abbie Thomas has been writing songs and playing music since she was a child, but in recent years, catalyzed in part by the Covid lockdown, she has been recording and performing her original songs with a band. The new album is Not Gonna Lie and it’s great! The songs are weighty and personal yet relatable, and the music packs a punch with palpable rhythms and bold melodies, all set off by Abbie’s strong vocals.
Abbie is receiving some attention for her music, nominated for 2024 Josie Music Awards Vocalist of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Songwriter Achievement for Crystal Ball.
