Location

The Vestry Hall, Cranbrook | Cranbrook, EN

This show is part of Annie's ‘I Thought It Would Be Easier’ album tour. Singles from the album, released on 5 April, have already had spins on BBC 6 Music! In recognition of the rich sound on the new album, Annie will be joined on stage by Gary Stewart on electric guitar, bass and drums, and Ed Blunt on keyboards; this is the first time that she has toured in such a format and she is very excited by the opportunities it offers.
Born and bred in the heart of NYC, Annie's musical journey started at an unexpected crossroads. On the night of her high school graduation, she picked up the family guitar for the very first time and discovered a hidden passion that would change her life. Annie's artistic odyssey led her to countless open mic nights in the bustling streets of New York, where she learned the art of performance and songwriting. These experiences ignited a fire within her, setting the stage for her debut solo show at legendary NYC venue 'The Bitter End' in 2008.
Her muse is her own life, a canvas where she paints the vibrant hues of her experiences. Through music, she navigates the world and her place within it, sometimes discovering her true emotions in the process. Some of her songs are personal, while others are inspired by the stories of those around her.
Though Annie now calls Cambridge home, her music still resonates with a unique NYC flair, showcasing her knack for rich storytelling, mesmerizing melodies, and lyrics that cut straight to the heart. Her voice stands out as a singular force and her music strikes a balance between familiarity and contemporary freshness, serving as a reminder that even in life's chaos, there's beauty to be found in its soundtrack.
A regular on the UK touring and festival circuit, her accolades most recently include a nomination for Female Artist of the Year at FATEA Magazine.
"Annie Dressner is able to paint visceral images and transport the listener to the world of the song." - American Songwriter
