Based in Imperial Beach, Abner features guitarist Adam Baez, who was still a teen when he began writing songs under the name "Abner."

In 2014, Baez was studying Recording Arts at Mira Costa College in Oceanside CA when he became friends with bass player Ian Blaemire and drummer Kyle Hansen. Baez used his resources at Mira Costa to record demos of the songs he had written under the name Abner with Hansen and Blaemire, with whom he launched Abner the band in spring 2015.

After performing their first show in February 2016 at Lestat’s, Abner entered Kings Ransom Studios in Lakeside to record with local producer/engineer Jeff Sers. They dropped their debut three song EP in September 2016.
