[ATTENDED: August 11, 2017] Abi Reimold
I was under the impression that this Record Release Party for The Districts began at 8. I was running a little late and when I got to Callowhill Road, the street was blocked off.
For no apparent reason.
So I was detoured all over creation and wound up arriving at 8:15. I wondered if I’d missed the opening band entirely. But it turned out that the show actually started at 8:30, so all was okay and I got a good spot up close for Abi Reimold, a Philadelphia-based singer songwriter.
She sings straightforward, honest songs. Her voice is interesting in that it’s quite pretty but with a bit of an edge to it–a kind of smirking snarl–that I really liked.
I had listened to some songs on bandcamp and liked them, but not enough to get really excited by her. But she really impressed me live. (more…)
