Marilyn Monroe made it big with a breathless voice. It's what you communicate that matters. Forget popularity-look at Celine Dion. Callas and Streisand-and I'm a fan or neither-would blow her off the stage. And don't even bring up Garland and Piaf!
It's amazing how she can keep her voice tone calm yet manage to convey so much emotion. Others scream their heart out in microphones and effect boxes and still sound as plain as ever.
@iAsteroidPlanetSmash could you expand on that a bit? So far you just come off sounding like a petty, clueless fool, but if you have something intelligent to say I'd love to hear it.
Hey Abigail!...next time you're in England why not come and play in our local Village hall! We've got 1800 folks in the village and amoung them artists, guitarists, banjo players, trombone players, stone carvers, and a couple of thieves! Kings Cliffe, East Northants, England. The lost corner of the Universe!.......and we still know how to party! X
Just beautiful. Something fresh and brand new, constructed of carefully selected vintage parts. Unique and worthy of attention and praise. Bravo, Abigail!
I would sniff her butt

Two banjos on the same stage and the music is still sublime! Anything Abigail is involved with is all class.

So great, so refreshing and so appropriate for our modern, multi-cultural experience.
Thank you!
Maybe a new genre, Chambergrass?
