Absylom Rising is an independent rock band that thrives on live performance! Known for relentless touring, they continue to gather a broader circle of critical acclaim for their irreverent blend of funk, jam, rock, and delta-blues.

AR's latest release Under The Radar continues to outsell expectations, and its title track as well as single Make It Through are receiving significant airplay from various college radio stations. While the band hones new material on the road they repeatedly wow audiences across the country with tight, professional performances.

Recognized as one of Jambase.com's busiest bands in 2005 with almost 200 shows that year, AR has polished their chops on the road. To date, Absylom Rising has toured CO, UT, NM, OK, MO, OH, PA, NY, VA, KY, TN, AR, MS, AL, SC, NC, GA, & FL. They took some time off last year to allow lead guitarist Gabe Rikard to complete his PhD, but a refined lineup has them back, and they're better than ever!
