Night Verses is an instrumental trio of unorthodox musicians based out of Southern California. Their cinematic approach to songwriting and composition focuses on themes of surrealism, cerebral cinema, and ambience for abandoned spaces. The group’s ever-evolving sound builds upon elements of art rock, post metal, prog, trip hop, and psychedelic. Daniel G. Wilson of Noisey wrote, “Night Verses ‘From the Gallery of Sleep’ is like Prog-Metal Salvador Dalí”

Nick DePirro (guitar), Reilly Herrera (bass) and Aric Improta (drums) have mentioned in separate interviews that the band’s constant pursuit is to sound as expansive as possible, while still working within the limitations of what a 3 piece can perform live.  To do this, they’ve developed unconventional techniques to broaden each member’s sonic potential. Using effects pedals on acoustic drums, live looping, ambient percussion, sampling and synth pads, they are constantly finding ways to sound like a much larger ensemble, without ever integrating the aid of backing tracks into their songwriting or live show. 

This DIY approach to performance also expands into their visual work. The group is responsible for creating all of their merch, album art, live projections, etc. From hand illustration to graphic design to video editing, Night Verses members all contribute to make sure the project is as expressive as possible and that the visuals deliberately form in direct translation to the music.
