The SixxiS
A musician’s music. A collage of instruments, light, and sound. A chord. A musical line. Lyrics plucked from the blend. A meringue beat, accompanied with classical undertones, funk groves, guitar riffs and progressions better heard from rock poetry and heavy metal distortions topped with vocal harmonies that eerily slide into your soul, The SiXXis lays a cacophony of sound, that goes down smooth, leaving an aftertaste reminiscent of System of a Down, Led Zeppelin, Muse, Queen, Pink Floyd, Rush, and not to mention the Transiberian Orchestra.
Chase the shot of discord with the players themselves and you get a pop fusion of sound that one won’t find on any store shelf, which is exactly what brought The SiXXis together—a diversity of musical influences, none wanting to fill any mold. With attention to structure like Edgar Allen Poe’s dark romantic stories and verse, the ambiance created by the musicality of Vladislav (aka. Vladdy) Iskhakov (lead vocals, guitar, synthesizer, piano, and violin), Benjamin Lloyd (acoustic guitar, percussion, keys, vocals), Zack Gamble (lead guitar) Mark Golden (bass), and Richie Torrance (drums, percussion), in addition to the sinister video subterfuge flowing in the background, The SixxiS bring the show all the way out of the box, playing their sound, yet creating music for everyone. How couldn’t they, each member with a different musical flavor and trained in such a range of instruments, reflect the taste of any and every listener who comes across their fantastic electric shows as well as equally impressive acoustic performances? The five are sure to serve whatever concoction you call your own, but with a twist uniquely The SiXXis.
So, in closing, “Turn on the lights, and let the glamour fill your soul. Sit back and watch as the show starts to unfold. Be mesmerized by all things that you will see! Just close your eyes... make a wish and count to three…”
