VIE IS A SONIC CIRCUS OF MELODIC AGGRESSION DISPLAYED WITH INTOXICATING ENERGY AND UNYIELDING PASSION!
VIE was formed in March of 2005. After a short time together, this five piece female-fronted alternative metal / hard rock band has been awarded Rock City News' "Outstanding New Band" and "Outstanding Female Front Person," LA Music Awards Indie Front Person of the Year and All Access Magazines Best Male Guitarist, featured on the cover and in several issues of Rock City News, and performed in some of the most famous and prestigious clubs in Los Angeles. VIE's immediate future consists of, opening for Kittie and Calico System in April 2006 and finishing their first full length CD, "Black Market Prophecy" , which should be released in May of 2006.
Members Brian Brown (guitar) and David Rodgers (drums) had been playing together in a former band for 3 years when they decided to venture in a new musical direction, without limitations, to create a sound that would separate them from the pack. They immediately started looking for the right musicians with which to explore and create. After many auditions, they knew they had found the perfect front person and collaborators when Noa (vocals/lyrics), Jose Hernandez (guitar), and Mike Tsouris (bass) entered the studio. From the very first rehearsal, they knew they had something unique. Songwriting seemed almost effortless, and within a few months, VIE had no questions about the material, the band, and the outcome of their musical vision. They had created something their own.
VIE is an enigma of musical diversity. Musical moods range from the beautifully haunting to desperately frantic to sexually inviting, saturated with dissonant sounds and unconventional chord structures and rhythms, all set in a commercially viable format.
VIE is something truly new and original, with each member having completely different backgrounds, influences and musical tastes. Those differences are what make VIE. With the powerful yet vulnerable voice of Noa, the unconventional chording of Brian, the haunting textures of Jose, the innovative avant-garde bass style of Mike, and the intricate, solid rhythms of David, VIE is a definite "must see and hear". Are you ready to experience VIE?
