Isabel Abbott - Tales (EP)

Navigating love, break-ups and make-ups in your early 20s can be a rocky rollercoaster of emotions. No stranger to that, Spanish singer-songwriter Isabel Abbott blends her native tongue with English in her debut self-produced EP 'Tales', blending latin, pop and modern R&B.

Throughout the EP, Isabel delves into each stage of an unravelling relationship, from the reggaeton inspired opener ‘Pretend’, where her soft vocals depict a love that is fresh and exciting, to ‘Lover’, where she comes to the realisation that she despises the idea of adoration for the same person. On ‘Go Away’, Abbot’s vocals sound powerful as she explores the darker subject of suicide, questioning whether her leaving will make the lives of those around her easier. ‘Tales’ does well to introduce Isabel Abbott as a creative and poignant songwriter, as she demonstrates her ability to seamlessly blend languages across a range of sultry soundscapes and varied beats.

Describing the EP, Isabel writes: "This EP, as the name ‘Tales’ indicates, is a story of a broken relationship. From a person not being interested enough in you to give you a label, playing games, getting a rebound, feeling heartbroken and finally getting over it”.

The burgeoning artist lives and breathes music, with a voice full of richness and depth that is further enhanced by her piano playing, which has now become a mainstay of her live performances. Writing, producing, and singing her own material from the young age of 14, Isabel often addresses the topic of mental health throughout her music, which she will be taking with her live performances all over the UK.
