IRIS
This welcome addition to our annual net.goth gathering, Iris is known
for their retro-flavored tunes blended with catchy, yet haunting
lyrics. From their debut album, Disconnect and its dance-floor
favorite "Annie, Would I Lie to You", to their latest release, Wrath,
reviewers have used words such as "perfect" and "sublime" to describe
their synth-tinged melodies. http://www.irismusic.com/.
AUDRA
Audra's music harks back to the early days of gothic rock enhanced
with a longing, heartfelt, ethereal sound. Signed to Projekt Records,
bandmates and brothers Brett Helm and Bart Helm, along with drummer J.
DeWolf, embody Audra's sharp, intense stage presence and well-crafted
songs that never fail to mesmerize a crowd. http://www.audramusic.com
THE PASSING HOUR
With a handwritten note saying that they would love to be a part of
Convergence and music which demonstrated they had the chops needed to
impress the committee as well as wow the revelers, The Passing Hour
will be making their way from Louisville, KY, to play for you. Their
album, "Forever This Day" and the dark music within gives one a taste
of the potential of this up and coming band, who includes alt.gothic's
very own Timly Grae as one of their members. They are a welcome
addition to the stage of C14. http://www.thepassinghour.com/
These acts join Voltaire, The Synthetic Dream Foundation and Faded
Sympathy on the stage of Convergence 14 in Tampa's Ybor City. Stay
tuned, more bands will be announced in the coming weeks!
Tune in to http://www.c14ybor.com
to see the latest in upcoming events
at Convergence 14.
Regards,
The Exiled, V.2
