biography:
Orenda was founded in Evansville, In. in the winter of 2001 by drummer Victor Birkle and singer, songwriter Denise Dill. With the hopes of creating a new original sound, Denise and Victor invited bassist Nick Turpin and singer, songwriter Summer Rodel to one of their practices. When the four began jamming, the chemistry was instantaneous. From that day on, orenda became a working band of original music.
Orenda is slated to begin recording their demo in May and all of us on BIRTHFEST are extremely excited to have them performing with us. |
