S2E38: Lucas Woodland & James Joseph from Holding Absence

Holding Absence is a band that creates music that goes against the norms evident in Spotify culture.  The creation of an album that reflects a journey for the listener is rare in this day and age.  The culmination of emotion with a raw sound encompasses music that reflects the yearning of the soul.  Throughout this process the listener goes on an emotional rollercoaster that sets Holding Absence apart from other bands in this period.  Hailing from Cardiff, Wales and comprised of Lucas Woodland (vocals), James Joseph (bass guitar), Scott Carey (guitar), and Ashley Green (drums)—the band is on an upward trajectory that we believe will only allow them to pursue bigger and better things in the coming decade.  Their latest single, ‘Gravity’ only emphasizes the place Holding Absence has solidified for themselves.  Currently signed to SharpTone Records, and soon to be releasing ‘Birdcage’; WCBG believes that the band is something special and we hope to share their message with all of you.  In the words of Holding Absence “You Are Everything.”  It was a pleasure to speak with Lucas and James about the band’s accomplishments so far and their goals for the future!
