Abby Nissenbaum - 'Perfect Crime'

Critically acclaimed, Nashville-based LGBTQ+ indie-rock artist Abby Nissenbaum releases new single ‘Perfect Crime’.

Taken rom her upcoming EP Don’t Want to Cry, to be released this later this year in September. Nissenbaum writes from the heart, exploring themes of depression, isolation, and heartbreak, but met with messages of hope and empowerment. Complemented by her effortlessly honest and raw vocal delivery, Nissenbaum offers relatable, honest and heartfelt lyricism amidst catchy melodies, beautifully contrasting the energetic indie-rock soundscape which surrounds her.

Speaking on the new single, Nissenbaum reveals, “We all know someone who's gotten away with something they shouldn't have. I wrote ‘Perfect Crime’ as an empowerment anthem for people who have been harmed, silenced, and/or stigmatized by wrongdoers, and I hope it can serve as a reminder that the universe will eventually dole out justice in one form or another.” She continues, “‘Perfect Crime’ is a single from my forthcoming EP, Don't Want to Cry. The lyrics delve into serious themes such as mental health and toxic relationships, but I still wanted all the songs to be catchy, upbeat, powerful, and ultimately hopeful.”
