Bio
of Verona is glitter/grunge and is what happens when band members from Williamsburg (Brooklyn) and Toronto (Canada) meet in Los Angeles. The name "of Verona" comes from Shakespeare's comedy, "Two Gentlemen of Verona." It has the smallest cast of any of the Shakespeare plays and we imagined it as the underdog of sorts, surviving on the sheer virtue of its story. Our story coming soon ... it will undoubtedly be the greatest story ever told ... or not. -
