About Me


CLICK HERE TO VIEW AEDRYAN'S FULL BIO!
Aedryan is a guitarist/songwriter of 24 years and he performs worldwide as a master magician/illusionist. He is also the founder of the Strange Happenings Ghost And Hauntings Research Society, in which he and his team of paranormal investigators study and document alleged haunted locations.
Aedryan began playing guitar at the age of 12 and played in several bands throughout the 80's and 90's. Eventually, Aedryan found his songwriting niche' and began honing the "King Diamond-esque" style he had been striving for, for many years. Then around April of 1999, Aedryan grew tired of trying to find musicians with his same level of dedication and determination (to put it nicely) and he removed himself from the music scene entirely for nearly 7 years, while continuing to venture forth with his career as a magician/illusionist. Aedryan swore he would never play music again, but as any musician with a true love for playing music knows, it is a sickness, which courses through their veins and it's just not something that can ever be permanently turned off.
In October 2005, nearly 7 years later, Aedryan finally gave into temptation and succumbed to his deep love of music and began writing music once again. The flame is once again burning and Aedryan continues his never ending search for like-minded, dedicated musicians in the Pittsburgh area to share his vision in the metal band - WICKEDESS. The "trick" for Aedryan is finding balance between all of his passions. In fact, Aedryan may eventually intertwine all three passions in to a one of a kind act, combining METAL, MAGICK AND THE DEAD!
