In recent years, Abe has formed a trio & quartet that perform regularly in and around New York and the East Coast. His groups are platforms for Abe’s continual music exploration, documented recently by the 2015 release of his third album, "Am Home." Each performance includes a deep focus and intensity that is always in service of the music, and nurtures the exploratory nature of his fellow musicians. Said best by legendary record producer Todd Barkan, "Powerfully lyrical guitarist Abe Ovadia explores the inner and outer frontiers of some the most heartfully expansive music of our age."
