Truant is a musical duo consisting of Ben Ashdown and Jason Boardman, both hailing from Manchester, England. Their paths first crossed in the post Factory Records era at the iconic Hacienda nightclub, where the vibrant scene made it rare to encounter the same person twice. After a series of DJ gigs—during which Jason earned the title of Manchester's busiest DJ—and five years in college, fate brought them together as neighbors in the same block of flats. With Jason managing his DJ and promotion empire from his flat and Ben refining his studio skills in his own, the formation of Truant was a natural progression. Their vision is clear: to create music that appeals to both the coffee table clubber and those looking to enjoy sounds while relaxing on the sofa.
