![]() ![]() Shattered Past focused on living with mental health. Thank you Stana Katic, writers and directors for bringing a character like this to life. While the world of Absentia has been extreme at times, there have been times when Emily has given me so much comfort and great inspiration. I’ve walked alongside these characters while I’ve been on my own journey with mental health. I made a season one EP (Bleeding Eye EP) and when season two came out, I wrote more songs and its expanded into the album Shattered Past which came out last year. I never intended to make an Absentia inspired album, let alone two! I’m TheFifthSister, a nerd rock singer-songwriter and diehard Absentia fan. The over all impact is one of energy and heart.Hi there. Joined in the trio formation by David Wood on drums for that incomparable edgy tilt. Vallorie Hodges plays electric bass with rings on her fingers and bells on her toes (actually the bells are on her ankles) and provides lead and back up vocals that have a raw, smoky quality. From intricate picking melodies to a steaming hot slide guitar, to spicy licks and riffs, this will be a sensory treat. Gary Brooker plays electric and slide guitar, harmonica, lead and backup vocals. This sound will leave you rattling your head wondering how so much dimension can come from two people! This is a very unusual sound, due to the percussion (shake and jingles on foot pedals and ankles) that both Gary and Vallorie play along with their primary instruments. This music is an Americana-Rock with some bluesy foundations, and spiritual, heartfelt messages that anyone who has struggled or suffered can connect with.Īnother feature of our adaptability is the that we also play as a duo for those more acoustic venues. ![]() With our release of Recovery Zone this piece of our repertoire is growing quickly. Gary Brooker is a prolific and hugely talented songwriter that takes us to another musical zone with our originals. We have our own interpretation and arrangments and have made them our own, but haven't yet met a Deadhead who didn't love it! From a coffee house style electracoustic duo to a danceable party band, we can bring it.Ĭlearly influenced by the genius of Hunter/Garcia and Dead-ish improv jam, we love to go to that zone. The most unusual part of the Clean Slate story is their adaptability to the musical moment. ![]()
