Absolutely Free is a Canadian band formed by bassist Mike Claxton, guitarist Jordan Holmes, singer Matt King and drummer Moshe Rozenberg after the breakup of their prior band DD/MM/YYYY.

History

Claxton, Holmes, King and Rozenberg formed Absolutely Free in 2011 after the breakup of their prior band DD/MM/YYYY.[1][2] The band released their debut EP UFO/Glass Tassel in 2012,[3] followed by On The Beach/Clothed Woman, Sitting EP the next year,[4] as limited-run 12" records.[5] The group also recorded a score for a film and several National Film Board shorts.[6]

By 2014, Holmes had left the band; Absolutely Free released their debut full-length album Absolutely Free with Arts & Crafts in Canada,[7][8] and Lefse Records in all other territories.

An animated video was created for the song ""Beneath the Air".[9] While the band was performing in Toronto to introduce the new album, holograms of the band members performed in Hamilton at the same time.[6] Soon after, the band performed in Los Angeles, opening for another Canadian band, Alvvays.[10]

The album was a long-listed nominee for the 2015 Polaris Music Prize.[11]
