Eregion were born in the spring of 2012 from an idea by Giorgio Colbacchini (rhythm guitars) whose intent was to create a metal cover band; he therefore recruited Gianluca De Lotto on lead guitars, Silvio Brusa on bass, Davide Ferraris on drums, Mauro Colbacchini as main vocalist and Barbara Borgo as backing vocalist. Soon after forming, however, the band felt the need to channel their creativity through composing their own original songs. The shared passion for Fantasy (which is also behind the band's name), for History and for Norse Mythology did the rest, making the group sound epic and very melodic. It is therefore in December of 2014 that LORD OF WAR, the first collection featuring nine of the most representative tracks that represent the trip undertaken together so far, finally sees the light.
Subsequently Eregion bring their music on various stages also playing with bands of the caliber of Airborn and Drakkar. It is during this time that Barbara and, later, Davide decide to leave the group to embrace other projects. Andrea “Blackhawk” Muscarello joins the band behind the drums and with him continues the adventure sharing the stage with other renowned groups (Ancillotti, Paragon, Soundstorm). In the meantime, the desire to compose new songsdoes not end, with a more power metal imprint and without betraying the sounds of the debut album. For some of these songs the band feels the need to introduce some violin parts, so Letiziamaria Gatti is asked to join the band, and she accepts with enthusiasm dedicating herself also to the choirs. With this line-up, the band has just entered the studio to release his second album, which is scheduled in December 2019.
