A short while ago, her spark for the music industry began. ABBY K. combines her guitaring with a passion for performing and a unique, organic voice to become a well-rounded performer. Her love for music is concentrated in the indie/pop/folk genre and she aims to impact her audiences with music that is written with vulnerability and features underlying themes such as Bullying and Self-Identity. In the last year, ABBY K. has written several original songs that highlight her indie/pop acoustic style and accentuate her passion for music.
