Biography Ayria is: anime, glam, 80’s, gothic Lolita, cyber, punk all wrapped up into an energetic ball of furry.  Canadian singer/songwriter Jennifer Parkin has become a true icon on the electronic music scene with her unique writing and performing style. In 2003, she began her project Ayria and shook the foundation of the electro-industrial scene by mixing striking feminine visuals, straight old-school industrial music with harsher, aggressive electro while still maintaining elements of electro-clash and 80’s new wave. Ayria has been intensively and successfully touring across the globe over the past 3 years gaining a very solid reputation for putting on energetic live performances.  Ayria toured the U.S.A as the chosen supporting act for legendary electronic-goth band THE CRUXSHADOWS ( 2007 & 2008, over 80 shows) and supported COMBICHRIST in 2007.  Ayria has also toured U.K., Europe, Russia, Mexico and Japan. Not fitting into any one musical category has allowed Ayria to gain a very broad fan base of underground goth, various underground club scenes as well as more mainstream audiences who are all addicted to Ayria’s infectious hooks. Ayria has released three full length CD’s on Belgium label Alfa Matrix (FRONT 242, LEATHERSTRIP, etc.), including the highly acclaimed “Hearts For Bullets” released in September 2008.  This release brings 12 hard hitting, tightly written and produced tracks each track uniquely evolving the AYRIA sound. "Hearts For Bullets" was produced in Canada by none other than Sebastian R. Komor (ICON OF COIL, ZOMBIE GIRL, BRUDERSCHAFT, etc.) Ayria hits straight and hard with Jennifer’s in-your-face sonic approach hanging between minimal electro, gritty bass synth lines and forceful stomping beats while never straying from the extremely feminine side of the project. Extravagant, provocative, bitchy and edgy yet all gut wrenchingly emotional and lyrically insightful, She hits a target somewhere between influences of NITZER EBB, M.I.A., MISS KITTIN and LADYTRON.
