ABOUT
We're a dark progressive rock band featuring violin, cello, guitar, bass, drums, female vocals and a sampler. We write hard(ish) rock songs primarily using non-traditional arrangements, strange time signatures and less common modes. We won the Westword Music Showcase Award for Best Gothic Band 2011 and have been nominated again this year for Best Progressive Rock Band. We were the first band in Colorado to use crowdsourcing website Kickstarter to finance our album (which was recorded at a solar-powered studio and featured liner art by a quadriplegic Greek artist).
