Ethereal Rock

About Me

The others were arguing over which genre to inhabit... Dyonisis danced out of the musical pandora's box whilst no-one was looking. Bringing with us a breath of musical fresh air...
We play with layering ethereal soundscapes driven along by pulsing basslines, utilizing two voices individual from each other, but blending together, weaving harmonies into emotive and catchy songs embroidered by haunting guitarlines.
Formed in 2005 when Marcus & Lou joined the song writing duo of Tom & Nel. The band hit the live scene running, building up a steady following. The journey has involved ever bigger shows playing with the likes of NFD, Emilie Autumn and at the Whitby Gothic Weekend. Regularly placed comfortably within the top 40 uk unsigned gothic acts in the Myspace charts, we've had a blast building our live profile and home-recording our debut album, Dyonisis . We are currently working of a limited edition EP, writing material for our second album and gigging up and down the country ~ hope to see you soon!
