Abigail Wighton + Amber Kenny
Description
Abigail Wighton is a singer-songwriter from Wollongong, Australia now based in Sydney on Wangal land. Her shows involve soul bearing lyrics, beautiful acoustic guitar playing and witty interludes that surprisingly feel like a chat with your best friend. “Wighton has long written songs that are wistful - an underrated quality in art…” - Sophie Hamley (Sunburnt Country Music).
Abigail has been paving her way in the folk and country singer-songwriter scene, opening for Fanny Lumsden, Colin Buchanan, Alex Lloyd and Maggie Rigby (The Maes). Abigail was invited to showcase her original songs at the 2024, 2025 and 2026 National Folk Festival. Abigail released her 2nd EP ‘soon’ in 2024 which was accompanied by an 8 stop tour. ‘soon’ was well received by radio, including Beccy Cole from Saturday Night Country on ABC. Abigail graduated from the esteemed Country Music Association of Australia (CMAA) senior academy course in January 2025. She is currently working on her next collection of songs with Simon Johnson and can’t wait to share them with you.
Amber Kenny hails from the Southern Highlands on Gundungurra land in New South Wales, Australia. She lives on a farm with her family, horses and cherished Maton guitar. A passionate songwriter, Amber has been described as an Australian Joni Mitchell who lives on the back of a horse, a tea drinking, barefoot poet. Amber blends captivating melodies and raw, profoundly personal lyrics that resonate deeply with her listeners. Amber’s ability to authentically connect with her audience is at the heart of her music.
Her debut album ‘Beautiful Scars’ was produced by Syd Green (Kasey Chamber’s drummer) and Ben Fink (The Whitlams), alongside Amber. It features an impressive line-up of musical talent including Lyn Bowtell (10-time Golden Guitar winner), Lloyd Swanton (The Necks) and Clare O'Meara (John Williamson, The Bushwhackers). The album is full of deep layers of emotion and storytelling, combining soaring vocals and beautiful musicianship. It has been featured across Australia on more than 40 community radio stations as well as ABC Country, with the album’s singles receiving positive airplay on Grass Roots and Saturday Night Country.
