“Five-piece symphonic Metal band Darkyra mounted the open air stage one and proceeded to shake the rafters of the Universe.
Gina’s powerful vocals fronted a hardcore of some of Perth’s finest and hardest working musicians around town,
Their wall of sound slammed into the cosmos, bringing space and earth together in a musical creation of the finest pedigree."
DARKYRA...the short story
Darkyra began in 2012 as the Solo Project of vocalist Gina Bafile under a pseudonym Darkyra Black.
The project involved Producers, George Boussounis (Greece) and Garry King (France) and various European Musicians. The music is a blend of Symphonic Metal, Cinematic Metal, Progressive Rock and Gothic Rock. In 2015 Darkyra began live shows in Australia. Darkyra has two full length albums, Dragon Tears released in 2014 and Fool released 2015. Still predominantly a solo project, a long line of supportive and collaborative talent uniting both Australian Musicians and European Musicians in the effort to propel the music forward to audiences all over the world. Album three 'Life Force' is well under way and set for release early 2025.
