The Virgo 9 - ProfilesArchive

About Me

Simple, but in a complex and bewitching way, The Virgo 9 has one goal. Making music for debauchery. A trio, sometimes duo, with rare and raw energy, they come off somewhere between angry and plain mischievous. Mischievous is closer to reality. Often called one of the most intense bands in The Triangle, they spin a blend of Punk, Stoner Rock and dirty, sweaty Rock 'n Roll with a grin as wide as the rivers they grew up on.
