The Absent
The Absent is a shoegaze fusion band pushing the boundaries of the genre. Their music is a collision of musical worlds — layered soundscapes of shoegaze, ethereal vocals of dreampop, and distinct rhythmic patterns of reggae. The Dallas based trio — Abbi Ingram [vocals, keys], John Edmonds [guitar], and Ian Clarke [bass, drums] have the unusual bond of all being British expats. Together they co-mingle ethereal vocals, lush layers of guitars, and cinematic synth-craft with heavy use of reverb and delay effects. Their music is known for its dreamy, hazy, and immersive qualities, with evocative lyrics often using Jamaican Patois to explore themes of longing, nostalgia, and self-reflection.
