Vampyre Year - Virgo Rising

ABOUT

In 2021, after the release of their acclaimed debut EP Sixteenth Sapphire, Winnipeg's Virgo Rising made a new rule; if the band was truly going to be a reflection of its members, and was going to give themselves fully to the pursuit of creating great work, each bandmate had to have veto power on every decision surrounding their second EP. The decision kicked off a long and sometimes arduous journey. That their sophomore EP, Vampyre Year, arrived October 13th 2023 on House of Wonders Records is both a testament to their bond and the capstone of a daring period in the young band's life. Amidst a swirling cloud of emotion, Emily Sinclair (Vocals, Guitar), Lauren Wittmann (Bass, Keyboards), Jenna Wittmann (Guitar, Violin), and Isaac Tate (Drums, Percussion) emerged with a bold and worthy followup that may well outshine their celebrated indie rock debut.
