Abby Nissenbaum Returns With New Song “If You Wanted To You Would
Nashville-based indie-rock singer-songwriter Abby Nissenbaum returned with a new song “If You Wanted To You Would” on January 2, 2026.
The song is her first music in since the EP “Don't Want To Cry”, which was released in October 2024.
She writes from the heart, exploring themes of depression, isolation, and heartbreak, but anchored by messages of hope, empowerment, and community.
It was written by Abigail Nissenbaum and produced by Martin Trevox.
Abby Nissenbaum said of the song “'If You Wanted To You Would’ is my modern take on a 60s torch song. I was inspired by artists like Lesley Gore who could combine vulnerability and heartbreak with quietly radical feminist declarations all delivered in a sweet, melodic pop package.”- She continued, “The song is ultimately about the moment you stop negotiating your worth in someone else’s uncertainty, and decide instead to choose yourself and your own wellbeing instead. The through line of, 'if you don’t care / then it’s all good / if you wanted to, you would' sounds a bit like resignation on face value, but at its core, I see it as a mantra for closure.”
