One of the things I absolutely adore about Abby Posner is her musical versatility. Whether it’s the musical instruments being used or her vocal technique. It’s abundantly obvious Posner personifies what it means to appreciate world music using a diverse amount of instrumentation -The Ripple Effect
Abby Posner is a versatile instrumentalist and songwriter who started playing and performing at a young age. Originally from Evergreen Colorado, Posner moved to California in 2002 to study at California Institute of the Arts as a multi focused music major. World Percussion became a major focus, as well as developing her compositional sense of songwriting. During her time at CalArts Abby began to form the eclectic bluegrass-rock band, Fearmia; Abby on guitar, mandolin, and banjo, while sharing lead vocals and songwriting with friend and band-mate Jesse Olema. Fearmia hit the LA venues and audiences became entangled with the band’s authenticity and unique driving force. with 3 albums under their belt, Fearmia has toured the north and southwest, played many festivals, including SXSW in 2011, and W.C. Handy festival in 2009.
Posner also formed many side projects in her time in Los Angeles which has included playing drums with Rock band, The Paper Tigers, Bucket and String (a unique instrumental folk duo) with Abby on guitar, didgeridoo, and mandolin, and Emily Corwin on Cello.
East Coast west, an experimental Jazz Duo with Posner on guitar/vocals, and Mercedes Smith on Alto Sax.
