Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Ari Abdul has forged her own brand of dark alternative pop.
Music quickly became a second language for Ari growing up in Brooklyn. Her Ecuadorian mom loved Latin music while her Costa Rican/Palestinian father introduced her to classic rock. Rounding everything out were her brothers who were all about hip-hop and metal.
She combines the reverb-heavy swells of your favourite shoegaze artists such as The Neighbourhood and Lana Del Rey. Combining an array of visual and stylistic influences, Ari has cultivated a mysterious edge to her artistic endeavours.
