Lady Morphia

LADY MORPHIA effectively began life in 1996 with the release of the five track cassette, "Tales from the Surgical Ward". Its nucleus consists of two brothers, Nick and Chris Nedzynski. Taking their name from a line in a poem by Robert Graves, the project's debut embodied the initial realisation of ideas with which founding member and multi-instrumentalist Nick Nedzynski had toyed since 1991. The group remains a forum for the artistic expression of his personal obsessions, thoughts, beliefs and emotions.

From the days of the act's earliest demos to its present compact discs, Lady Morphia's music has always reflected the conflict between an imperfect world and the desire to transcend temporality. A striving for the sublime is perhaps the single most important element evident in the texts and sounds produced by the duo's current configuration. This holds true both in terms of divinity and corporeality, for the sidereal and the sensual are equally intrinsic facets of human existence. Lady Morphia proffer no ready answers to the ills of our epoch, but rather seek to reconnect the listener ? if only for a brief period ? with the metaphysical forces that govern life. To date, Lady Morphia have released two cassettes, one MCD as well as two critically acclaimed full-length albums, "Recitals to Renewal" and "Essence and Infinity". The band have also produced collaborative works with other artists, and have made contributions to various compilations.
