CATHEDRAL ARTS LIVE WELCOMES BACK THE DOWN-HOME SOUNDS OF FAN-FAVORITE ABBIE GARDNER--WITH AN OPENING SET FROM NEW JERSEY'S OWN SEAN KIELY!

Singer and songwriter Abbie Gardner resumed her solo adventure after more than a decade of touring with Americana darlings Red Molly. Tales of love and loss, both gritty and sweet, ride the back of her by-now familiar, formidable slide guitar licks. Winner of the 2008 Lennon Award for "The Mind of a Soldier" and 2008 American Songwriter Magazine Grand Prize Lyric Winner for "I?d Rather Be," she channels Lucinda Williams and Bonnie Rait, but remains pure Abbie.

?Cathedral Arts Live is such a great part of the Jersey City music scene,? said Gardner. ?A true community-based series bringing regional and national acoustic acts to a gorgeous listening room. I can?t wait to end my year of touring the country with this local show in my adopted hometown." www.abbiegardner.com

Kicking off the night is a performance by Jersey City-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Sean Kiely, whose melodies were described by WFMU?s Pat Byrne as taking ?the listener to a place high above the astral plane, a place of comfort and warmth, glimpsed at in dreams but always unable to describe when conscious.? His latest EP "It Sure Was Good" is a deeply felt collection of songs of loss and love. He is currently working on his second full-length record. www.seankielymusic.com
