About Baroque Monody

Formed in depths of the winter of 2013 in Youngstown, Ohio, Baroque Monody is the shared vision of two musicians. The concept and vision of lead singer, guitarist, keyboardist and song writer Jennifer Rose (Ex-Sam Goodwill), the band was born when guitarist and songwriter Rick Polo (Ex-Relic, The Denial Stage) sought out Rose to front a goth/sludge project. Rose brought her psychedelic and shoegaze influences to the table, and the duo immediately began writing songs that range in style from alternative, goth, shoegaze, post-punk and doom. The material resulted in the "Empress(III)/Emperor(IV)" split album. Based off the Empress and Emperor tarot card archetypes, the Empress trilogy became the concept of Rose, while the remaining four Emperor tracks with Polo at the helm. Rounded out by bassist Angelo Scordo and drummer Anthony Rapone of the band Idle Shades, Baroque Monody began previewing the material live at high profile appearances at RoxFest and Cedars in Youngstown. Last Fall, the group cut "Empress(III)/Emperor(IV)" at MindRocket Studios with producer/engineer Josh Roman. As of early 2014, Baroque Monody have been performing with new members , bassist Steven Andrew (Ex-Same Goodwill, Vessel) and drummer Levi Dixie (Ex-SickAsMe) and plan to officially release "Empress(III)/Emperor(IV)" digitally and eventually on vinyl, as they continue their assault performing live with new members Steven Andrew and Levi Dixie across the greater Northeast Ohio and neighboring communities.
