Loud, depressing, indie rock
Lavinia is Nate Shumaker (The Burning Paris/On Fire/Eksi Ekso), Jon McMahan (Caspian/Seneca), Brendan Ford and Mike DiTullio.
After relocating to Austin from the Northeast in 2012, Shumaker quickly recruited members John Momberg (Mansions, Appleseed Cast), Joel Reynolds (junius, DRIFTOFF, Graveyard Lovers) and Matthew Herald (Pswingset). This lineup began work on new material until splitting to focus on other projects.
Previous incarnations of the band included Philip Jamieson (Caspian), Alex Mihm (Eksi Ekso, On Fire), John Helmig (Everdown, Crowne Vict) and Josh Megyesy (The Burning Paris, On Fire). Their debut EP "There is Light Between Us" and the "Take Shelter" 7" are both available now on The Mylene Sheath in North America.
The 2nd full length album, Sallowed, is out now through Pax Aeturnum Digital, and Pre-order for limited vinyl pressing will be coming via Northern Lights Industries.
