About Me

Singer and songwriter Abi Tapia calls Austin home, but she€™s lived in 9 states and her music reflects the spectrum of Americana. The inviting warmth of the South, the expansive Midwestern Plains, and the pluck and determination of a New England Yankee are all audible in her simple, honest and ear-catching tunes. Abi€™s latest CD is One Foot Out The Door, a collection of 12 songs about love, leaving, coming home and holding up a honky-tonk. The recording was produced by Chris Gage and features Eamon McLoughlin and Kym Warner of The Greencards. Sign up for our Email Newsletter

SHARE MAP
Sounds Like: "Bittersweet is more than an undertone in Abi Tapia's latest CD, but that's not the prevailing emotion here. Beauty weaves strong Southern influences with an old-school 1970s country-folk sensibility, mastering the understatement in her songs and avoiding cutesy-rootsy overkill with intelligence and a fine tenor on this turning-point recording." -Margaret Moser

"a refreshing sparkle reminiscent of Terri Hendrix's Wilory Farm or Shawn Colvin at her most unguarded." -Texas Music

"Buy her new album, One Foot out the Door. It's full of sweet-but-confident tunes, sounds kind of like Kathleen Edwards, and gives us the chills from time to time." -Portland Phoenix
