Originally released February 1, 2019, and long since out of print, Abigail Lapell is proud to reissue "Getaway" as a limited edition "Adriatic Blue" pressing on June 2, 2023.From the original release notes:Call it prairie noir, or Canadiana desert rock: Abigail Lapell sings haunting, gorgeous modern folk songs, mapping epic natural landscapes and deeply intimate, personal territory. The Toronto vocalist, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist has released three acclaimed solo albums-Hide Nor Hair, her Chris Stringer-produced sophomore LP, won a Canadian Folk Music Award for Contemporary Album of the Year in 2017. Since then, Lapell has been on the road, touring across Canada, the U.S. and Europe, and playing at festivals like Pop Montreal, Mariposa, In The Dead Of Winter, Tiny Lights and Folk On The Rocks.For Getaway, Lapell spent time in the mountains, digging through her vault of unreleased material, and ended up with dozens of road songs to choose from. Working again with producer Chris Stringer, she expanded her pool of collaborators, recruiting Christine Bougie (Bahamas) on lap steel, Dan Fortin (Bernice) on bass and Jake Oelrichs on drums. Getaway sounds fuller than Lapell's previous records, her signature howl and warm, melodic guitar chops matched by a bluesy rhythm section. One of the record's most striking moments is just acoustic guitar and two voices: Lapell and Sipos, captured live in a room together, harmonizing overtop plucked strings on the transfixing "Down by the Water." The result is Lapell's most eclectic and confident album to date. "'Getaway' pushes at the bounds of what Lapell has achieved so far. Drawing horns, harmonica, and even an accordion together, the soundscapes paint pictures of their own." -Exclaim!"Haunting voice and impeccable guitar playing." - CBC "Traces of Natalie Merchant, Sharon Van Etten, Frazey Ford and Sandy Denny." - Folk Radio UK1.
