Abnorm live at Santiago Bar
Support from Understudy and Tymisha
Formed in 2021 by musician, singer, and songwriter Abbie Rose, Abnorm is a fast-rising force in the North East’s alternative rock scene. Known for their powerful, thunderous sound and raw, openhearted lyricism, the band delivers anthems that speak to the struggles, passions, and inspirations that drive Abbie’s song writing.
Blending hard-hitting riffs with emotive storytelling, Abnorm’s music channels both intensity and vulnerability, creating an electrifying experience for audiences. Whether tackling personal battles, societal issues, or moments of deep reflection, the band’s songs hit with an unrelenting energy that refuses to be ignored.
On the rise of Abnorm, Abbie says: “When I was growing up, there was a severe lack of representation of women in rock music. I grew up obsessed with Paramore, The Pretty Reckless, Joan Jett, and Janis Joplin. Before I considered starting Abnorm, I was listening to other emerging female-fronted rock bands like Dead Pony, The Mysterines, Black Honey, Yonaka, Nova Twins, Wet Leg, Scene Queen, and Cassyette.”
