Details:
ARYA (https://www.tradebit.com) : A being who has realised ultimate reality directly and non-conceptually.
In a unique display of heavy, progressive and melodic music, which transitions easily between metal and rock (with a hint of funk), ARYA is a band dedicated to musicianship and song writing, exhibiting a maturity beyond their years. ARYA tunes both capture the audience and take them on a ride into uncharted territory. Never ones to duplicate themselves, ARYA demonstrates a distinctive sound with each member drawing from their diverse inspirations. The result is a refreshing and unconventional approach to song writing.
ARYA''s sound has been hailed as: "addictive, mature, intense, heavy on groove and prone to bringing about goose bumps." Their songs feature Ashley Curtis’s soaring and dynamic vocal melodies, Lucas Di Monte''s hard, fast and powerful guitar sounds, amplified by the tight-knit and thunderous rhythm section of Sean Hillman on drums and Ryan Merrigan on bass. Their sound and vibrant live show are fuelled by a musical alliance, friendship and shared vision for the group that is palpable on stage and off.
Since the release of ARYA''s self-titled debut EP, in conjunction with performances in and around the Toronto area, the band has been building up steam and piquing the interest of both audiences and fellow musicians alike. After more than a half-year of devoted effort, ARYA''s debut self-titled EP was completed in March 2007. Produced by Juno winning and Grammy nominated Justin Gray (Joss Stone, Sugar Jones) the disc offers a strong combination of musicianship, song-writing and production, sure to prove to the listener that heavy, technical music, coupled with melodic vocals, belong together!
ARYA''s first music video "Ashamed," directed by Mike Coffey, was recently released and entered into a Universal Records competition. A Paragon 5K finalist, ARYA is currently involved in the WARPED Battle of the Bands for a chance at tour dates, and the Paragon X-Posure competition for a chance at label interviews, and other prizes. Look for ARYA this summer on an East-Coast mini tour.
Taking particular joy in the collaborative nature of the Toronto indie scene, ARYA strives to be engaging, approachable and helpful to those with whom they have the fortune of crossing paths. The band looks forward to seeing you soon at the EP and Video release party/Heart and Stroke Foundation fundraiser in Toronto! Stay tuned!
