Divine Ratio is comprised of musicians from the VA Beach and NY areas. Their music is intense and emotional, foreign, yet strangely familiar, rhythmic and melodic. It is derived from influences and life experiences that are evident in the sound that these four musicians create.
Divine Ratio was formed as Release in 2000 by lead vocalist and guitarist/songwriter Bryan Knispel.
Bryan is a well-respected local musician whose credits include working with bands Soul Circle and Relief, along with his current side project Acoustic Sense.
Charles Gray, guitarist/songwriter and NY native, has co-founding credits with past bands Limbic, Fraction and Trichotomy (aka Rook).
Tripp Johnson is a well respected bassist and vocalist who additionally holds a BA in Drum Set Studies and Composition from the College of William and Mary.
Rounding out this dynamic group is drummer James Roman a native of NJ, who has through the years played with countless musicians and bands doing session work, film tracks and touring.
Divine Ratio is a band dedicated to and propelled forward by the idea that real music is not an accident or a preconceived corporate blueprint, but rather a vehicle for creating a sound that is emotional and compelling.
