Abrasive Monologues
Abrasive Monologues was formed in 2022 as Jonathan Hadley’s flagship under which he conducts all of his publishing. Since that time Abrasive Monologues has expanded to include Jonathan Hadley, Mario Marino, Kian Dray and Only the Host on the signed artists roster, for which it acts as their primary record label, providing web presence solutions, distribution and promotional assistance. The creative team has grown to 14 independent artists that collaborate to make amazing things happen.
