"Domicile" was recorded during the summer of 2021, during the Covid-19 Pandemic. While live shows were still not possible, we decided to pre-record and stream a semi "live" concert as a way to stay connected to our listeners, and to have fun with some friends in our local scene.
This was also our first "performance" since the departure of Sid Harris from the band. Sid stepped down from the band in order to focus more on his numerous other music projects. He remains a friend and brother of the band, and we were lucky to have him jump on board to deliver some of his vocal parts that didn't end up making the cut on the album version of "Red Sky." This is also the first time that Sid has performed metal-style screamed vocals.
We were fortunate to have a number of other guest performers on this recording as well. They were:
Sarah Gribeauval (Aeria, ex-Archipelago) - Guest vocals on "From Heaven"
Richie "Newan" Nguyen (Odd Ones, Uforia) - Guest guitar solo on "Summer Never Ends"
Jason Emsallem (Nightwell) - Guest vocals on "To The Wind"
Nick Young (Pillars of Autumn) - Guest vocals on "Jitterthink"
