Mary Beth has been selected to perform in various showcases and festivals including ROCKRGRL Music Conference in Seattle and the Acoustic Live Music Showcase in LA. Her debut album, "What Happened to the Girls?" was released in 2002 and was also named one of the best releases of 2002 by both the Denver Daily News and Westword Magazine. The track, "Leave You Behind" (co-written by producer and brother, John Abella) was featured on a couple of MTV Real World and Road Rules episodes.
