Dianthus is an unusual band. It’s a band made up of twin sisters! Jessica & Jacky Parry (on drums and guitar, respectively) started off playing classical piano. But once they heard Black Veil Brides, it was all over. They put the piano aside for guitar and drums and started writing some heavy music! They honed their chops on covers and released their originals on Soundcloud. When they started work on their debut album, they had the opportunity to work with Jinxx from Black Veil Brides! And just as the duo began working on the new album, the lockdowns hit. That forced them to take a different approach to their writing. I think it paid off in the quality of the songs, particularly their lyrics. And currently, they are working on arranging the songs from their new album, Realms, so they can sound just as good live as they do on the album. Look out for their live shows and give them a follow on social media. You can check out dianthuslive.com for all their links. Give us a follow @PerformanceAnx on social media.
