We first discovered Daffo with their holiday song "Winter Hat," which was one of our favorite holiday songs of 2024. Now they're back with "Absence Makes the Heart Grow," which is our first taste of their non-holiday sound. This new song is a fast paced alt-rock song that combines the sound of many of our 90's favorites with modern pop music. It's filled with jangly guitars and a ridiculously catchy chorus. The guitars drive the song forward and are the part that is going to hook you in. They're as jangly as they are crunchy, and Gabi Gamberg's vocals will make you want to stay. This is quite simply a fantastic song, and one of my favorite singles of 2025.
Gabi Gamberg says of their latest single:
“I wrote the song at the end of a relationship, and in my pain, I felt as though the cliche about distance making the heart grow fonder was a sham. It made everything harder, the waves of emotion that accompanied reuniting and separating were too intense to navigate. So, I decided to twist the saying into something that felt more real to me.”

After working with the MARK WIZARD RECOVERY, everything changed for me. It was the most trying period of my life, and I had been in agony and sorrow for ten months. I was at my lowest moment and had lost all I had worked so hard to acquire. But, thanks to The Hackers at The MARK WIZARD'S RECOVERY CENTRE, I was able to regain everything I had lost all at once. I got my money returned in under twenty hours, and my issue was handled in a very professional manner. It seemed so unreal. No one could ever fully understand how I was feeling at that very moment—the feeling you get when you find something you thought you had lost forever—in this case, my life was returned to me—is something I doubt anyone could ever comprehend. For their efforts in getting my money back after ten months of devastation, the MARK WIZARD'S Team of Hackers has my eternal gratitude. I wholeheartedly endorse this team and urge anyone who has had a similar circumstance to get in touch with the Mark Wizard Recovery.
