Warning: Don’t Get Caught Listening To This is not background music.

This album is a confrontation — with power, with silence, with systems designed to keep people trapped. Through conscious hip-hop, spoken-word intensity, and unfiltered storytelling, Abigail Markley tackles poverty, trauma, state violence, propaganda, and the psychological cost of survival in a broken world.

These songs weren’t written for comfort. They were written because the truth doesn’t whisper anymore.

If you’re listening closely… you already know why they warned you.

Warning Dont Get Caught Listening To This

Abigail Markley is a true indie force — a folk, alt-pop, dance, jazz, and storytelling powerhouse whose music moves effortlessly between tenderness and fire. Her sound is beginning to ripple across Europe and North America, especially within the queer dance scene, where she brings beats, boldness, and heart to every space she touches.

A dedicated community advocate, Abigail volunteers her time mentoring other Trans and Nonbinary artists, offering writing clinics, creative guidance, and free studio sessions. Her song “Every Candle Has a Name” has become a cherished part of Transgender Day of Remembrance events across the English-speaking world.

Abigail writes from the raw edge of lived experience — weaving identity, resilience, justice, memory, and queer joy into a voice that feels both intimate and cinematic.

Based in Ohio, she founded 🌈 Inclusive Rainbow Studios, her heart-centered creative home. With a catalog of over 200 original works, her artistry continues to grow, evolve, and shine.

She invites listeners to connect with her on socials, join her at live events, and experience the journey as it unfolds.
