Soul and power. Two words missing from rock music in the 21st Century. DarZana is here to pick up the slack. DarZana is the vehicle for singer-songwriter Christy Gilardi to deliver her formerly acoustic based music within a rock format. Lead guiatarist Mike Dillon, bassist Tim Salas, and drummer John Sheppard, have transformed these intensely personal pieces into uplifting and empowering rock tracks. Christy's rock-solid band mates provide a powerful rock accompaniment that allows her songs to literally jump out of the speakers and into the heart and mind of the listener. The sound created by these four talented musicians is a swirling mix of powerful guitars, slinking bass lines, fluid propulsive drumming, and soulful singing. DarZana's debut album, "Magic Cats and Dogs," was self-released in June 2006 to overwhelmingly positive reaction from critics and fans alike. "Magic Cats and Dogs" conveys the essential truths and feelings that consume and inform us all as human beings. The combination of confessional, poetic lyrics, soulful vocals, and powerful rock music makes DarZana one of the most promising and exciting new bands in San Diego music. DarZana promises to bring back rock music that matters. - Patrick McClure
