Absolight, an emerging alternative rock trio hailing from Quebec, Canada, began its journey in 2020. Founded by drummer Antony Jomphe, the band’s inception stemmed from a serendipitous reunion among former bandmates and friends. Antony, alongside twins Olivier and Carl Ricard, rekindled their musical connection during an impromptu session, ignited by the drummer’s infectious enthusiasm. Thus, the trio was born, with Olivier lending his vocals and guitar skills, and Carl on bass.

Drawing inspiration from British rock bands, Absolight crafts a dynamic blend of alternative rock, infused with rich sonorities and catchy rhythmic melodies, occasionally venturing into punk, pop, and classical realms. As their reputation quietly burgeoned, the band found themselves likened to the esteemed British outfit, Muse.

In July 2022, Absolight unleashed their debut single, “Neon Walk,” a pulsating anthem brimming with raw energy. Within weeks, the track garnered over 10,000 streams across major digital platforms such as Spotfy and YouTube, setting the stage for their Fog Overhead EP release in September 2022.

Since 2023, the band has graced stages across various events and opening for such acts as Simple Plan. Absolight continues to captivate audiences with their live performances that showcase their original material. They played not once but twice at the 2024 CMW festival in Toronto.
