Vesper is the haunting voice and lyrical architect of Graveyard Carnival, weaving stories of cosmic dread and twisted fates into every song. With an otherworldly stage presence and a background in performance art, she channels the spirit of a ringmaster who’s lost control of her own show.
Ash, or "Riot" as he’s known in the band’s inner circle, is the heartbeat of the nightmare—a drummer who plays like he's conjuring a storm. With a love for industrial rhythms and the precision of a clockwork maniac, he blends chaos with control, making every beat feel like the pulse of a neon-lit apocalypse.
The members of Graveyard Carnival found each other in the shadows of an abandoned theme park on the outskirts of a forgotten town. Vesper was filming a performance art piece in the decaying remains of the funhouse when she heard Ash’s manic drumming echoing from the derelict Ferris wheel. Drawn to the rhythm, she followed the sound and stumbled upon Bastian, who was tuning his bass beneath a string of flickering, broken carnival lights. Together, they made a pact under the neon glow of a crumbling carousel: to bring their twisted, chaotic vision to the world—or disappear into the void trying.
The architect of the band’s dark, sludgy soundscapes, Bas is a master of atmosphere and also Ash's twin brother. His basslines are the undercurrent of every song, grounding the chaos with a grim, steady pulse. Bastian’s synth work adds layers of eerie, shimmering distortion, as if the music itself is glitching out of reality.
