About Me

Cyber, gothic rock is the confronting picture on this purple, blood red and black canvas. With influences from The Prodigy, NIN and Marilyn Manson, you'd keep your Death of Art CD on the shelf in between your Spawn and The Matrix soundtracks.This was Erin Blackie's (lead singer/songwriter) vision before this project was even born. She worked on it solo to begin with, working with various producers, but things really started to take shape when she started working with guitarist/writer Andrei Jennings. Since this time, they have worked with numerous people to program their songs and co-write new ones. Many thanks to the contributions made by Ryan Schofield, Jon Lee, Dave Shepherd, Justin Redlich, and Eddie Katz. In 2006, Erin and Andrei welcome keys player Raj Jain who is making a fantastic contribution to their sound.Along the journey so far, DOA have performed at Melbournes Crown Showroom and Chapel off Chapel at a number of Jaanz Elite concerts. This is a televised event on channel 31 on Jaanz Live, as Erin is a student of world renowned singing teacher, David Jaanz, based here in Melbourne, Australia. DOA have also performed at Noise Bar, Dream Nightclub at 'Ignite!', The Barleycorn and also a number of acoustic performances at Soak, The 9th Ward, The Comfortable Chair, The Arthouse, The Barley Corn, Bennigans, Noise Bar, Brunswick Hotel and The Empress, all here in Melbourne, Australia, where Death of Art are from. They've even had their song "Am I Psycho?" featured in a short horror film which Erin starred in, "The Wakeup Call."With Erins background in professional dance and acting, a DOA performance is a fantasy, theatrical experience and a witness to Erins on stage self-therapy, which is certainly very real! At some bigger events, they have also enlisted a live drummer and bass player to add to their big sound, and youll even see dancers which Erin choreographs in her no less than dark, theatrical style to complete the canvas that is Death of Art.
