"Sans Absol" literally means "without absolute" or "without borders." We stand upon a rock foundation, but no walls exist to isolate us from the world of music. No boundaries bar us from exploring the sonic spectrum. Stay tuned for more/better recordings.
We're trying to get some feedback from honest music listeners such as yourself about our newest recording, and we would greatly appreciate if you could take a minute or two and check out Small Head, Big Shadow and let us know what you think. Thank you so much!
