‘Halfway To Mexico’, taken from Abigail Lapell‘s 2019 album Getaway, is a beatifully languid and humid folk song that eases along on the back of her wonderfully expressive way with melodies that dance through the song.

The Toronto vocalist, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist has released two acclaimed solo albums – Hide Nor Hair, her sophomore LP, won a Canadian Folk Music Award for Contemporary Album of the Year in 2017. You can hear a bit of Beth Orton, a dash of Nadia Reid and others in her voice. Intoxicating stuff!
