Amoric

AMORIC are an award winning, four-piece, rock band from Bulgaria who are now based in Dublin, Ireland. AMORIC have had several member changes over the years before finalising their line-up in 2010. The band consists of Lora Dimitrova (lead vocals, keyboard), Miroslav “Miro” Ivanov (guitar, backing vocals), Emiliyan Bonev (bass, backing vocals) and Yanko Genov (drums, percussion). The quartet’s front-woman, Lora, has an undeniable vocal ability and stage presence and this coupled with the band’s hard-hitting playing style produces the diverse and memorable sound that is AMORIC. The group released their self-titled debut EP in 2009. The EP was recorded in Dublin's Temple Lane Studios with Grammy nominated US producer Bruce Sugar. Bruce's career reads like a Who’s Who of popular music having worked with Ozzy Osbourne, Ringo Starr and Joe Walsh of the Eagles to name but a few. In Autumn 2010, the band released their follow-up EP ‘Keep Up’ which sees the band pushing their sound to a brighter soundscape. A pre-release review of the EP by the reputable Skopemag.com resulted in the band being selected as an ‘Artist To Watch’ in 2010. The band have gained a large fanbase through internet promotion and playing live. In a very short period of time, AMORIC have notched up one of the largest online fanbases of any unsigned band with over 150,000 fans on web sites MySpace, Facebook & Twitter. AMORIC have received various awards including finalist for best rock song in the internationally renowned John Lennon Songwriting Contest. The band will be playing a number of festivals in 2010 including Solfest in the UK and they will be touring in Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia later in the year.
