Abby Stewart is a 23 year old singer/songwriter from Kingston, Ontario. She feels most at home on the music stage, achieving some pretty impressive success.
In 2014, she opened for Hunter Hayes on his Tattoo Your Name Canadian Tour dates along with Dan + Shay, and has had the privilege of singing duets with Dean Brody, Dallas Smith and Aaron Pritchett. She has opened for many Canadian talents, most recently Cold Creek County at her hometowns Rockin' In the Square, Brett Kissel in Toronto at the CNE and in Ottawa on his Ice, Snow and 30 Below Tour, as well as for Tebey, Michelle Wright, Emerson Drive, Tim Hicks and many others.
She has had the great pleasure of performing at some of Canada’s biggest fairs and music festivals, including Boots and Hearts Music Festival, Havelock Country Jamboree, Ottawa Bluesfest, Trackside Music Fest and several more.
Abby released her EP "Firsts", in 2015 which included her radio release “I’m Still Faster”, followed by her first music video, which now has over half a million views on YouTube. In 2017 she collaborated with Invictus Entertainment, Big Star Records and and released a duet entitled "What If They're Wrong?" to national Canadian radio which was either added or featured on 22 stations from coast to coast.
In 2021 and 2022, she released her solo singles "Bless Your Heart" and "Waste The Weekend" to all streaming platforms and national Canadian radio, with "Bless Your Heart" reaching as high as #23 on the CBC/Sirius XM 171 rolling playlist rankings.
Her most recent single "Love's Gone", released last year, was a Nashville, Tennessee pitched song written by country music super-star Kelsea Ballerina, as well as Nancy Peacock and Brad Ellis. The music video for "Love's Gone" was directed by her film school attending younger sister Annabelle Stewart with help from Spark Creative Communications.
