RES0NAXIS, from Australia
Formed in 2005, the Sydney-based band consists of Brooke Shelley
(vocals), David Drury (pipe organ, vocals), Matt Roberts (drums). Following the
2007 release of their EP, Videntes stellam Magi, Resonaxis’ debut CD,
Resonaxis, featured music that drew inspiration from ancient chants, church
psalms, renaissance polyphony, baroque musical forms, dance music, Scandinavian
metal and jazz. Along with Michael Sheridan on guitars, guest performers
on the CD included renowned bassist Steve Elphick, Theorbo player Tommie
Andersson, and baroque string musicians from the Australian Brandenburg
Orchestra. Resonaxis’ music and interviews have featured on Australian national
and community radio, on online international radio and in international
publications. Their follow up album, Hymnarium includes Richard Hundy (guitars)
and Adam Bodkin (bass), and consolidates the original idea behind forming the
band of combining rock/metal with renaissance music (from the official website)
