In Concert - A Holiday Music Event Not To Be Missed!

You may know Abigail from her many billboard dance hits (Let The Joy Rise and You Set Me Free) and as the "devastating diva with a difference." However, her mild-mannered alter ego, Abigail Zsiga has been enthralling audiences with her emotive acoustic singer/songwriter live set since the 2007 release of her album "Home ...again". Abigail joins us now with an exclusive preview of the first few tracks from her newest album "Hush" as well as an intimate, stripped down view of all of our favorites from Home again.

BIOGRAPHY:
Abigail Zsiga used to get into trouble for sneaking vinyl out of her father's record collection. While her classmates were busy listening to Wham and Madonna, Abigail was educating herself with Carole King, James Taylor, Squeeze and Supertramp. While only 8 years old Abigail was asked to perform at her school's parent night. The connection she felt that night with her audience was so great that she realized her future could only be that of a singer and a songwriter - communicating her life through music and song.

Trained as a classical vocalist, she later began to experiment with other styles of music, seeking new opportunities while exploring and developing the deep, rich quality and texture that defines and distinguishes her voice. While still a teenager Abigail had her first chart success as a featured vocalist for the UK trance outfit, "The Love Decade." She then teamed up with British producer Ian Anthony Stephens and together they recorded her first full-length album, "Feel Good," which earned her awards for Best Album, Best Female Vocalist and Best New Artist.

Having achieved extraordinary success as a vocalist, Abigail knew it was time to once again pursue her other passion; songwriting. Her first writing credit came with the release of "You Set Me Free" in 2000 on Strictly Rhythm Records. Abigail began to visit major publishing companies in search of collaborators with whom she could develop and refine her craft while determining her musical niche. Her art as a singer-songwriter was evolving and it was soon time to put together a collection of her songs which expressed her deepest thoughts, feelings and observations. Abigail's long-awaited second album, "Home ...again" was that stunning collection. It delivers a breathtaking journey of love, loss and triumph that surveys a huge range of emotions and experiences. The title track of the album, a touching tribute to her grandfather penned shortly after his death; the hauntingly beautiful "Songbird," written at a time of deep personal turmoil; and the proven radio hit "Better With You," co-written with Dimitri Ehrlich who also co-wrote Moby's single ‘Where You End'; all prove that Abigail Zsiga's authenticity is established by her principle that artistic creation establishes and maintains credibility.

In addition to her musical achievements Abigail is also an dedicated advocate for the human rights organization "LOVE146."
