ABS at HOME

"Fridays with Friends"


Starting Friday June 12th, our “ABS at Home” project transitioned to a series of messages (and performances) from some of the ABS musicians that our audiences have come to know and love. We called it "Fridays with Friends."

Through video greetings, personal messages, and self-produced recordings, they will speak directly with you about their activities, recommended distractions, and personal journeys during these past months. We’re so grateful to the artists from whom you’ll be hearing for their generosity and earnest expressions of how much they miss you and their anticipation of being back with ABS as soon as possible. 

We know that Music is a very important part of our lives, and we are committed to being here for you now and in the future just as we have been for more than three decades.

Thank you for being with us during those 12 weeks.
We were grateful for your company!

Please note: The audio/video is provided by YouTube, and there may be short commercial segments before or after the music, depending on how you interact with YouTube. Unfortunately, we can't prevent those ads from being displayed. So you might want to start with a low volume level at first.
