The concept of AbsurdHero came to Bernard Sprenger in a question: “Why would I limit myself to one musical genre?” A multi-instrumentalist with a Bachelors in Music Composition, AbsurdHero blends his love for pop melodies and distorted guitars, wrapped in a cloud of atmospheric synths that take you on an emotional journey.

His new single, “Dear Friend,” was inspired by a friend’s struggles, approached with feelings of empathy, compassion, and hope. Blending pop punk and metalcore, it is a nimble yet epic sounding piece of songwriting.

AbsurdHero communicates the conflicting responses his anxiety brain receives when trying to help a friend: “I’m always wrong, I’m never right” / “I did the right thing, yet it made some people angry.”
