Their debut show in July of 2002 was noted as one of the year's musical highlights by the local press. The Witching's heavy sound combines crunchy guitar riffs and driving beats topped with classic rock and indie melodies. The band released their debut self-titled album in September, 2003.
The Witching's first full-length album features 10 of their most rocking, crowd-pleasing tunes, exemplifying surprisingly mature songwriting for a band barely a year old. They plan to promote the album by gigging extensively in the tri-state area, and have established their own record label, All Night Records, to handle retail and Internet distribution and promotion to press and radio.
Born of a pure desire to rock, The Witching coalesced in the spring of 2002 when frontwoman Ruby Beil and rhythm guitarist Maco Rodriguez collided head-on with blistering lead guitarist Meryl Bursic and the rhythm section of Eva Revesz on bass and Barb Dybwad on drums. Beil's animated howlings and growlings on stage are matched by Bursic's ferocious abuse of her current favored vintage guitar. Rodriguez provides chunky, syncopated metal riffs above Revesz's rock solid bass lines and Dybwad's frenetic drumming. Visual spectacle notwithstanding, the Witching's live show is guaranteed to provide an earful of driving rock 'n' roll.
With their new album in tow and rock in their veins, The Witching will be descending upon a town near you! The experience is not to be missed.
