SongVault.fm - The Best in Independent Music
Ayris:
The Indie/Experimental Experience.


Ayris fully formed in January of 2006 with the addition of their singer, Allie Nickel. With Adam Henderson on drums, Hogma on guitar, Steve Whitmore on bass, they soon began to make regular appearances at Pittsburgh venues. 2 years in, Steve left the band and in walked Mike Gaston on bass.
Nickel makes her way through each song with smooth, unconstrained and passionate vocals. The powerful yet technical guitar riffs of Hogma are striking and vigorous, yet they remain flexible and fluid, displaying years upon years of skillful playing. Gaston thickens the melodies with funky yet sometimes heavy bass lines that freely meld into hypnotic grooves, complementing Henderson’s incredibly detailed yet catchy rhythm. Always strong and full of color, his playing encompasses many styles all of which have been influenced by many percussion greats in drum corps, jazz and rock.
Described as "Heavy Rockers" by Aaron Jentzen (PGH city paper) and "Dark rockers" in other previous reviews, Ayris melds many different elements of music; blending nu-jazz, melodic metal, goth-rock, and indie rock all into one concise sound. Streaming above the blandness of new music, Ayris is truly a unique sound that must be experienced firsthand.
Ayris has steadily been making their way through Pittsburgh, making regular appearances and Borders Bookstores, Mr. Small's theater, Altar Bar, Hardrock Cafe, Club Cafe, and many more. Ayris has most recently started playing various Cleveland venues and hopes to bring their music to the surrounding regional states in 2009.

I hope you are fine and enjoying springtime!
Please feel invited to listen to my new song ECHOES.

Its the first time I collaborated with another musician, who wrote the music for this gloomy but powerful piece of music.
