"When Abbie Strauss sings, it feels as though she is pouring her soul directly into yours. Speaking with her is like a meeting of hearts-genuine, warm and deeply connecting. She is a gentle yet powerful leader, capable of making a packed house of thousands feel like an intimate gathering of close friends. Abbie is generous with her gifts, always choosing to shine the spotlight on others rather than herself. It's a true privilege to create music with her- and an even greater one to call her a friend."
