Artist Spotlight: Abbe May

We continue our trip Down Under this week with an all new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we uncover the dark and mysterious sounds of Australia's own Abbe May. Emanating from a small coastal town in the southwestern section of Australia, Abbe has a gothic, electronic infused sound that ventures into avant-garde territory, but manages to put listeners in a trance with her edgy, dark style capturing the audience's attention almost immediately. I'm not a huge fan of gothic influenced music, but something about her image captivated me almost immediately and gravitated me towards her sound in which I admired the electronic influence interspersed throughout that contributed to an overall cohesive and direct musical sound. Her song "Karmageddon" is an accurate representation of the overall sound that she's trying to convey to her listening audience.

For more information on Abbe May, head on over to her Facebook page located right here where you can get more information on her background, and peruse her photo gallery as well to see some eye-catching images of Abbe. Her Twitter account is located right over here where you can communicate directly with her and see if any tour dates will make its way over to the States sometime soon! Her official website is right here where you can get a listen to her music along with a host of other in-depth features.
