Songwriter Abran Lopez Releases a New Wave of Music

Growth. That’s the best description for songwriter Abran Lopez’s new track. Three years after the artist made his debut in the American music industry, he has returned with a new and potentially successful project. With his unbridled enthusiasm, creativity, and energy, this Mexican American artist is the very embodiment of change in the music industry, as his new project proves.

Lopez is a 22-year-old singer-songwriter, guitarist, and producer who has been singing and writing songs since he was a child. He began playing the guitar at age 10 and started writing songs at 14. His inspirations are Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, and Nick Drake, but also more current artists like Fleet Foxes, Daughter, and Sufjan Stevens.

At 18, he recorded his first CD, which he sold at concerts in Cancun and Veracruz, Mexico. He received great reviews from print media and radio stations in the USA and Mexico. The following year, he packed his bags and moved to the U.S. to study and further his career. He released his first solo album in 2019 under the title Asleep. The track blended pop, soul, rap, and hip-hop elements masterfully. Even if you’d never heard of him before, you could tell he was destined for greatness just by listening to that album.

Lopez’s voice, which is distinct for its roughness, was another thing you aren’t likely to forget. In a world where many artists depend on Auto-Tune to perfect their pitch, his natural voice did the work all on its own. From track to track, he created emotional resonance with his audience as he described life and its many curveballs. Though he was relatively unknown in the American music industry, it took little time for him to attract a sizable audience.

Lopez gained 100K monthly visitors on his Spotify account within 2 months. The same was happening on YouTube and SoundCloud, as fans clamored to hear more of this refreshing sound. Somehow, this young artist had managed to create a sound that many had tried and failed to do. His outstanding ability to flow from one genre to another, play multiple instruments, and connect with his audience on a deeper level left many in awe of his talent, in and outside the industry.

Now, Lopez has just launched his newest album, titled The Spark. He describes the album as a mix of pop and rock, something we expect from his name. Even with this difference in sound, the album is sure to find success among his fans, featuring an hour-long playlist for new listeners. Lopez says this album is his strongest work yet, with extra elements we’ve not heard before.

Early listeners agree, and many have given it positive reviews. They claim Lopez’s style has not changed much, and the songs still have a hint of sadness in them and an underlying mixture of realizations that many relate to. On his part, Lopez describes his work as a “phase of life” and the album itself as a “part of his personal soundtrack.” The artist adds he drew inspiration from the events of the past two years, including death and loss. He plans to launch the album officially on the 4th of March on Spotify and SoundCloud before releasing it on YouTube later that weekend.
