More than a mere performance, The Phantom A.D. delivers an electrifying spectacle. Fronted by The Phantom—a larger-than-life figure draped in his signature cape and afro—the band has pioneered a unique musical genre known as Ghoulish Rock N’ Roll. Seamlessly blending Surf, Garage, and Rockabilly elements with the frenzied, forbidden fun of an old horror movie, they’ve established a worldwide following. Originally known as Isaac Rother & The Phantoms, the band has undergone an evolution, reemerging as The Phantom A.D. to reflect a new chapter in their macabre musical journey. While the name has changed, the ghoulish energy and commitment to their hauntingly good sound remain stronger than ever. Absence+Alchemy is a Deathrock/Post-Punk/Gothic Rock band based in Omaha, Nebraska, self-described as "Music of the Midwest Heretics". They are releasing their debut album, The Traveler's Bag - Redux, in May 2026, featuring a blend of original EP material with new songs, art, and lyrics
