Awaiting Abigail

AWAITING ABIGAIL Genre: Hard Rock/Metal Influences: The Warning, The Pretty Reckless, Halestorm, In This Moment Formed in 2024, Awaiting Abigail is a powerhouse hard rock and metal band blending raw emotion, technical prowess, and melodic storytelling. The group began as a reunion of three high school classmates—Heather Hammonds, James Smith, and Laurie Barnett who played together in the mid-to-late 90's in locals bands. Joining them is Kori Tolfa on keys. The missing piece came in late 2024 when the band discovered Abigail Hill, a gifted vocalist and actress studying theater arts at a local university. Her vocal and songwriting talent cemented her as the perfect frontwoman. Abigail’s versatile voice and stage presence quickly made her the melodic force and namesake of the band. Together, the quintet creates a distinctive sound featuring gritty guitar riffs, synthesized soundscapes and a pounding rhythmic groove. Abigail’s soaring vocals weave through colorful textures and dynamic arrangements.
