Spooky guests for ConCarolinas 2017 – Valentine Wolfe!

ConCarolinas welcomes back our favorite gothic Victorian Chamber Metal duo – Valentine Wolfe.

Formed in 2006, Valentine Wolfe is the combined effort of Sarah Black and Braxton Ballew. Having dubbed their music “Victorian Chamber metal”, the duo have synthesized a love of metal, classical, and industrial, infusing them with a Victorian sensibility that evokes the likes of Bram Stoker and Edgar Allan Poe. Ethereal soprano vocals of Sarah Black are buttressed by the thunderous growl of Braxton’s electric upright bass, the two coalescing over pounding rock and electronic grooves punctuated by a maelstrom of synthesizers, keyboards, and sound design.  Their work has attracted the attention of rock audiences, goth enthusiasts, theatre composers, and con attendees all up and down the east coast. Their current release is A Child’s Bestiary, nine tracks of macabre oddities from the imagination, an exploration of a grotesque menagerie, lurking under the guise of a child’s innocent rhymes.
