Melodic female-driven progressive hard rock. If you dig it, you can download our free EP on our myspace (check the blog)!

Band/artist history

Instrumental guitar bedroom recordings that were slowly turned into an actual band, adding members one by one. I ended up between bands at one point in 2009 and met a drummer that shared a similar vision musically so we decided to give this project a shot.

Have you performed in front of an audience?

Currently around the Jacksonville, FL area and beyond!

Your musical influences

Lots of stuff. I tend to gravitate toward the progressive side of things, or anybody who is extremely creative with what they do. Stuff like Rush, Dream Theater, Pain of Salvation, Coheed, SikTh, Periphery, The Dear Hunter,  Porcupine Tree, Cynic...

Guitarist wise I'd say Gilbert, Jeff Kollman, Satriani, Petrucci and Eklundh are the ones who have influenced and/or inspired me the most.

What equipment do you use?

For recording:

JS1000 - podxt
Superior 2.0
Cubase as my main DAW
FL studio for programming drums/synths
Steinberg Hypersonic
iZotope Ozone 4


For live playing:

Guitar - Rivera Thirty-Twelve - Mesa 4x12
