Bio:
"Darian and Friends" is a charity musical project created by Dario Beretta, guitarist of Drakkar and Crimson Dawn. With the help of an array of metal and rock musicians from around the world, Dario is working on a full-lenght album which will be released in 2022. Here you have the first single, where Dario is joined by Ty Christian (Lords of the Trident), Kristian Niemann (Sorcerer), Simone Pesenti Gritti (Drakkar) and Michele Sanna (Sunstorm). The song has been mixed and mastered by Mattia Stancioiu at Elnor Studio.All profits from the album will be donated to research against leukemia. Leukemia is an aggressive blood cancer that causes more than 300.000 deaths per year, and is very common among children.Dario said: "I always wanted to do something to help research finally find a cure against this terrible disease that, among others, also claimed a close friend of mine when we were just 19 years old. This project is my dedication to him and his strength of character, and a chance to try and do some good in a world which is looking worse and worse every day. I was lucky to have made quite a few friends over the 26 years I've been active in the metal underground, and they answered the call, which makes me proud. However, we also need support from you - the fans! So please share this as much as possible. Details about the release of the album and the ways to support our chosen charity will follow later. Keep in touch, and help us fight for a better chance for the millions of people who struggle with this disease every day - and enjoy some cool music in doing so!"
Album:
Bands are founded for various reasons, fame, fortune, fun and boredom. But heavy metal has never been one to shy away from the more philanthropic causes and this year has Dano Beretta of Drakkar and Crimson Dawn fame setting up a new project aimed at supporting research into cancer, particularly leukaemia with Darian and Friends releasing their debut studio album ‘Lost Horizons’.As one might guess with a band named Darian and Friends; ‘Lost Horizons’ features a plethora of guests from the rock and metal world as the international community comes together for a good cause. Therefore, what the listener gets here are some really, really good tracks from hard rock singalongs through to roaring heavy metal, Beretta has the listener covered coupled with some absolutely phenomenal musicianship throughout. Through tracks such as ‘The End of the Human Race’, ‘Waiting For Godot’ and ‘On the Run’, musicians such as Anders Engberg, Damnagoras and Roberto Tiranti trade off with the likes of Nina Osegueda and Giorgia Colleluori who allow ‘Lost Horizons’ to swing between the appeal of Thin Lizzy and Rainbow through Magnum and early Def Leppard to the likes of Labyrinth and Elvenking. Furthermore, there is a real accessibility to ‘Lost Horizon’ and don’t be surprised if this album manages to drag in fans from the more melodic spectrum from the likes of Sunstorm and Sweet Oblivion.From its very start, ‘Lost Horizons’ is a very entertaining and enjoyable album that has a real replayable quality to it. The songs are well delivered, thoughtful and it’s for a very good cause and definitely worth picking up."an entertaining album throughout and it's all for a good cause!".
