Abi Wade (cello.box.voice) A Musical collaboration between limbs, strings and vocal chords.

The cello is the backbone to the four songs that comprise her And Blood And Air EP – a set that strikes the listener with a singular blow, soft but undeniably affecting. Carved with a uniquely tailored blade it is hard to liken her to any former artist, but similarities have been drawn to the independently distinct Arthur Russell, Joanna Newsom and Kate Bush.
