Annie Dressner’s lyrical life has seen her trot from the US to the UK throughout the development of her musical identity. With roots sewn in New York, much of her heritage lies in music, with her grandparents having first met while working in radio and her parents imbuing her with a love of piano in her early years. Since, she’s developed an individualistic style as a singer-songwriter—direct, indelible, and subtly bittersweet—that she’s toured throughout the indie circuit to acclaim since. Her latest, “Midnight Bus”, is unsuspecting, grungy folk that wouldn’t feel remiss in the songbooks of Phoebe Bridgers or Elliott Smith, but it’s Dressner’s own.
