Ari Abdul

Originally from Brooklyn, New York, Ari Abdul unfolds a dark alternative pop nourished by shoegaze, indie rock and gothic leanings. Inspired by The Neighbourhood and Lana Del Rey, she has crafted a mysterious aura by blending carefully staged imagery with an exacting ear for sonic detail. Her velvety voice rests on saturated guitars, thick reverbs and slow tempos to explore desire, relationships and an urban melancholy that runs through her songs.

In 2025 she released her first single BABYDOLL, followed by an accelerated version, BABYDOLL (Speed). Both tracks went viral, amassing over 83 million streams worldwide and 400 million views on TikTok, establishing her signature somewhere between dream and tension.

On March 24, 2026 at the Trabendo, Ari Abdul brings this universe to the stage. Expect hazy textures, rumbling guitars and direct songwriting, revisiting BABYDOLL alongside more recent material. The live set is designed to highlight the density of her sound and the nocturnal atmosphere that accompanies her alternative pop.
