Abbie Ferris Releases New Single
Abbie Ferris is the pure definition of a country girl, and a ray of light on the Australian music landscape.
Her girl-next-door charm and humility, coupled with an effervescent stage presence and signature vocal, have fans gravitating to her time after time.
My Kinda Cowboy
A modern and fresh song, My Kinda Cowboy, is a fun time, feel-good piece, with a strong message – that someone’s character is what really matters in life. It’s not the boots or the hat, it’s about the heart beneath, that counts.
Co-written by Abbie with Nashville-based hitmaker, Phil Barton, along with Brandi Sidoryk and Katie Rox from Canadian country band, Nice Horse, My Kinda Cowboy was produced by Michael Carpenter.
About Abbie Ferris
Raised in the little country town of Mallala, South Australia, the great outdoors and music were always at the centre of Abbie’s world.
Growing up, Abbie would spend her time exploring the family farm, writing songs, and playing her guitar. Her father was a stockman who worked the sale yards, so Abbie was on horseback by the time she could walk.
After significant industry buzz before even releasing a song, Abbie was awarded the Market the Music ‘Emerging Artist Scholarship’ in 2017.
Rising Star
This led to an appearance on the Country Music Channel/Country Music Television (CMC–CMT) Awards red carpet, wearing a custom-made RACY & LUCKY creation (Lady Gaga, Jaguar Jonze).
To round out the year, Abbie saw her first taste of festival action at the Country Music Cocktails event, held at the Groundwater Country Music Festival.
You listen to Abbie and other great Australian Country artists on PopRock Country.
Abbie was also featured in The Music Network’s annual interview with industry stalwart Tim Daley, who named her as one of four artists to watch in 2019, a wonderful vote of confidence in her career trajectory at the tender age of 18.
Having had a taste of the festival circuit in her debut release year, Abbie has followed up with appearances at the Tamworth Country Music Festival, Country at the Camp, and Australian Music Week and was on a roll until COVID-19 put the industry on ice.
Touring
With normality returning, 2022 saw Abbie reach new heights, performing at Savannah in the Round, Charters Towers Country Music Festival, and her first-ever main-stage festival performance, at the Groundwater Country Music Festival before headliners Seaforth.
On the touring front, Ferris has been kept busy supporting star performers O’Shea, Kirsty Lee Akers, and Hayley Jensen, as well as carving out her own touring path across Australia.
In June this year (2023) Abbie will be a part pf the “The Fierce and Fearless” tour with Bonnie Kellett and Courtney Keil, you can get event info here.
