Abby The Lady Spoon, born Abby Roach in Wichita, Kansas (1981), is a distinctive force in American folk and roots music. Renowned for playing spoons as her primary instrument and weaving in musical saw, she draws on a rich tapestry of early jazz, ragtime, jug band, gospel, and Appalachian folk. Abby’s vibrant live performances fuse storytelling with intimate, street-corner energy, creating a sound that’s both traditional and fresh.
