THE SIRENS SONG OF BLACKBRIAR CONTINUES TO SWELL AS THE BAND MOVES TOWARDS A NEW YEAR AT THEIR MOST CINEMATIC AND SEDUCTIVE BEST.
With a magnificent 2023 seeing them ensnaring a collaboration with metal juggernaut, Nuclear Blast Records, releasing their second full-length, A Dark Euphony, and a massively successful first stint at a headlining tour in Europe, it's clear that the masses have been heeding the call to the alluring charm and whimsical soundscapes of Blackbriar.
Formed in 2012 by Zora Cock, Rene Boxem, Bart Winters, and Frank Akkerman, Blackbriar crafted their first single in 2014 with "Ready to Kill," but it was 2015's second single "Until Eternity" that truly propelled them into the scene. A sweeping track with an equally compelling and beautiful video, it continues to draw many to the act with over 20 million views since its debut. Taking advantage of the growing buzz surrounding the band, they independently recorded and released their first EP, Fractured Fairytales, as well as acquiring a second guitarist in Robin Koezen. This EP layed down an impressive foundation for the band's ethereal and breathtaking sound and brought about new opportunities for the act, including tour dates in The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Hungary, and more, where the band played alongside Epica, Halestorm, In This Moment, Delain and MaYaN.
To keep moving ahead with full control of their creative ideals, the band successfully crowdfunded their follow-up EP, We'd Rather Burn, and brought it to life in October 2018. This EP would be the first time the band worked alongside esteemed producer, Joost van den Broek to arrange and produce the effort, and this fruitful collaboration allowed Blackbriar's whimsical and enigmatic sound to reach new sonic heights. Released the same day as their self-made video for "I'd Rather Burn," this EP showcased a stronger sense of dreamy atmosphere and brought listeners beautifully grim tales of witches, banshees, and sea sirens. In the time following, keyboardist, Ruben Wijga (ex-Re-Vamp) took a larger role within the band and began playing shows, after being involved in the songwriting process since Fractured Fairytales. A busy 2019 followed, the band released a haunting single in May entitled, "Snow White and Rose Red." A duet with Ulli Perhonen, their take on the Grimm's fairytale featured striking cinematic visuals to accompany the spellbinding track. Continuing to dig deeper into fairytale realms, Blackbriar closed the year with their third EP, Our Mortal Remains. Ever-sharpening their intoxicating blend of storytelling and breathtaking musicianship, the EP brought about new live exposures for the act as well. Small, sold out tours with Epica in 2019 and 2020, as well as a sold out opening for Delain's Apocalypse and Chill release show in Utrecht followed, with more future plans then being put on hold due to COVID-19.
Championing their continued independence, which included everything from songwriting, maintaining their web presence, overseeing merch, as well as shooting and producing their own videos and photos, Blackbriar reached out to their ever-growing and loyal fan base for assistance to make their full-length album a reality in 2020. Fans fervently heeded the call, reaching the €25,000 goal in under 24 hours and ending with a total of €70,000 and achieving all five stretch goals. An impressive accomplishment for an independent act, which also showcases a strong internet presence with over 230,000 YouTube subscribers and 56.5 million channel views as well as 37.9 million Spotify streams and 275,000 monthly streamers on the platform.
Entering 2021, the band relinquished a bit of control in signing exclusively with Doomstar Bookings to help properly support their highly anticipated first full length album, The Cause of Shipwreck, which released in April. Once again recorded with renowned producer Joost van den Broek (Epica, Powerwolf, Blind Guardian, After Forever) at Sandlane Recording Facilities, this release showcased the band's continued evolution into masterfully dark gothic storytelling and theatrical aesthetics that entice you into a deadly yet spellbinding musical paradise. On the live front, launching into success with six sold out Dutch club shows, they later extended into more European territories such as Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, and the Czech Republic as the band moved into 2022.
Despite a very successful 2021, the band still hungered for more, unleashing the single, "Fairy of the Bog" in December. A song about 'het meisje van Yde' (Yde girl), it's a mixture of folklore, myth, and ancient local history wrapped into a more mystical and magical package that showcases what Blackbriar does best.
