The Existence
The Ars Supernova begins with a rock band. It continues as the group defies the mainstream sound and sculpts a form of rock with powerful, soul vocals. The composition echoes the work of Vince DiCola, Dream Theater or even classical influences while hints of artists like Queen and John Legend surround the style. If it isn't the poetic vocals taking the lead, it's the harmonizing guitar and violin, or the groove of the rhythm section acting to move the song along with the emotion of the story being told.
The band released their debut album Messenger in November 2007 to solid reviews:
"...it looks like they struck gold with their art-rock approach and the smooth vocals of Jirod Greene.'' - Sean Claes INsite Magazine
"With a style that's multi-faceted and difficult to pin down, their epic compositions groove along, only to soar to masterful crescendos!'' - Jeff Sass Myxer.com
"...there are a few groups out there who are making material that's worthy of your time, and one of them is The Ars Supernova.'' - John Laird Austin Sound
They have also extended beyond music by founding SoundWave, a non-profit initiative focused on aiding the local and global communities. Please visit www.soundwavefoundation.org for more information.
"They've found a unique sound and have discovered a method to use music to help those in need.'' - Billy Loveless Brazosport Facts
The Ars Supernova recorded their second album in the summer of 2008. Lumina is to be released in February of 2009.
