Russian symphonic metal, goth, folk band KIARA have a couple of releases out, with more content coming soon. The band will be taking part in this exclusive summer music fest alongside an array of other bands as well. The band talks of themselves and the fest too of course!
1. So how did you get involved with being a part of the "Bloody News Online Fest: Insane Summer Gathering 2021"?
I’ve known Kostya Aronberg on the internet for a few years, so he asked me if I wanted to perform at the festival with my solo project. I agreed.
2. To those who may not be familiar with your band, can you give us a brief summary?
I have been dreaming about my own band since I was a teenager .I was playing and singing in several bands, and I continue to be a participant of the other bands. But in the bands where I am just a performer I can't express myself completely. KiaRa is my solo project, so I compose all the music the way I feel it, and I express myself there without any restrain.
3. How would you describe your style?
I’m based on symphonic metal mostly, but you can hear gothic and folk elements too.
4. What have you release so far and how can someone find your material online?
The debut album Storyteller was released last August, live album Online Winter Show - in January. You can tap KiaRa - Storyteller on Spotify or iTunes, or even in Google, and you'll find everything. I also have all the links on my website annakiaramus.com.
5. Why should someone buy your works?
Because it's the only way to support musicians during the pandemic. And apart from the pandemic, this is the way to show musicians that you like their music and that they are worth something in musical world. Besides, musical industry takes much money, and if you don't have other jobs, this is the only way to make it.
6. How would you say you differ from other bands and artists on the scene?
Almost everyone can find something that he'll like in my music. Also I am who I am. I don't pretend someone else to reach more success.
7. What do you want to achieve as a band?
As every band, we want to take over the world! Kidding. :) To be honest, I just do what I do and I'm glad that people like it. Of course, we want to perform all over the globe, but next destination is shows in Europe.
8. What does this next year have in-store for you guys?
We're planning to release new album. We're also planning some shows, but it's hard to say if they happen or not because of the world situation.
9. Where can the fans and new comers find out more about you?
In my social medias and website. I can be found as Anna KiaRa everywhere, and the website address is written above.
10. Can you describe your band in just three words?
Passion, diversity, creation.
