The Singles Bar: Abigail Lapell muses on bonds of togetherness with ‘Anniversary Song’

Personal bonds merge inside the latest Abigail Lapell song. Within “Anniversary Song,” Lapell coos softly into a bed of mixed instruments and a crystalline melody. She turns her voice over the words with profound tenderness, as she draws comparisons of traditional gifts to periodic elements like iron and silver. A guitar’s gentle quiver glues the emotional and musical progressions together, guiding the lyrics to and fro. As is her way, Abigail Lapell infuses a tremendous weight to the story that grips you and won’t let go. As the anchor to a new album, Anniversary (out May 10), the song rustles the heartstrings and gets the blood coursing anew. It’s so smooth to the touch that you’re likely to get lost in its fragile leaves.
