Since moving from her hometown of New York City to the UK, singer-songwriter Annie Dressner's confident, quirky, inviting debut, 'Strangers Who Knew Each Other's Names' has been happily received.
Playing at festivals and venues such as the Cambridge Folk Festival, Secret Garden Party and Cluny2, Annie is quickly making herself and her music known.
Dressner's poignant songs are delivered with such conversational ease, it often seems as if she is reading from an intimate letter or a book, set to music. Her straightforward lyrical style, sharp ear for wordplay and crisp, lilting vocals offer listeners a front-row seat to her stories, as they take shape above the understated music.

Dressner is making a strong connection with listeners. Her collection of 11 original songs at times evokes Bright Eyes, an up-tempo Mazzy Star 'Fade Into You,' or Jenny Lewis.
