MONICA ABEN

About

Born and raised in Venice, Monica comes from a varied musical household where her mother was a professional Polyneidan dancer and her father a vinyl enthusiast. Her music career started when she was 18, following the advice of “industry professionals” remarking that her wholesome self wasn’t good enough and that change was needed. Contradictory comments ranged from “be more country”, “be more edgy” “wear this dress”, “show more skin”. All that was about to change after a trip to London in January 2020. Rather than being told to follow a trend or try and be someone different, for the first time she met a group of influential people that wanted Monica to be herself.
