It’s always nice to come across new talent. That’s why it is a pleasure to introduce Californian rising star Abi Carter. Best known for her appearance on American Idol, at only 21 years old, she has already made a strong impression on the music scene. Her rendition of Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” was so impressive that it earned her a coveted Platinum Ticket, sending her straight to the second tier of the competition rounds on the program.
Despite preparing to study psychology before American Idol put her into a sudden spotlight, everything exploded in ways she could never imagine. However, she felt drawn to music and songwriting long before even appearing on the show.

However, it was when she learned to play the piano that her life was completely changed. Thanks to this, her passion for music was finally ignited.
Abi Carter is unveiling “This Isn’t Over” showcasing her exceptional skill set and finally solidifying her position as a powerful player in the industry. Released through 19 Entertainment and BMG, “This Isn’t Over” is an anthemic explosion of emotions.
