Abby Wren is an Atlanta musician and bandleader of Wren and the Wravens. Their unique blend of ambient soul and pop has earned comparisons to Portishead and Lake Street Dive but floats with solid downtempo confidence all its own. Wren has been a vocalist almost her whole life, singing in school and church.
“I remember being a kid in church and just looking around to see who was singing and how they sang,” Wren says. “I knew I had something that was inside me that I needed to explore.”
