(TORONTO – February 14, 2023) – TD Music Hall welcomes Kaia Kater and Abigail Lapell on Wednesday, May 22, 2024 for a special double album release celebration.
Tickets to Kaia & Abigail’s show at TD Music Hall are on-sale this Friday, February 16 at 10am ET via tdmusichall.com or 416-0872-4255.
Montreal-born Grenadian-Canadian Kaia Kater’s jazz-fueled voice and deft songcraft have garnered acclaim from NPR‘s Tiny Desk, The Guardian, Rolling Stone and No Depression. Kaia draws on influences rooted in Quebec, the Caribbean, and Appalachia, all of which reflect the diversity of her background; her family’s deep ties to the Canadian folk music scene; her college years spent soaking up Appalachian music in West Virginia and her father’s experience growing up in Grenada, arriving in Canada in 1986, after the U.S. invasion. Kaia has released her first single since 2021, offering the first taste of her upcoming album set to come in the spring.Toronto songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Abigail Lapell returns with Anniversary, an evocative collection of original love songs. Produced with Great Lake Swimmers’ Tony Dekker, the album was recorded at 200-year-old St Mark’s Church in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. Dekker helped shape the sessions’ spooky, resonant sound and also lent his voice to a couple of spellbinding duets. Lapell’s deft lyrics jostle with love song tropes, grappling with love’s finitude and the irony of how codependency and longing are revered in popular music. Balancing upbeat earworms with elegiac ballads, Anniversary ultimately emerges as an earnest celebration of commitment.
