MONICA ABEN

HOT VOX showcases some of the freshest emerging artists breaking through onto the scene, but in an industry saturated with new music, how can you cut through the noise?

To separate the best from the rest, we have cherry picked one of our favourite new acts and are pleased to have them as our Artist Of The Day.

Today’s Featured Artist Of The Day is Monica Aben!

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.
