Biography:

When The Clockwork Dolls formed in 2007, the concept was simple: Theatrical, grand, epic music for folks who dream, and dream big. Hailing from diverse backgrounds, this band of video game nerds,
theater geeks, sideshow performers, and artist rejects took the Steampunk scene by storm with their 2009 debut album, Dramatis Personae.

Featuring the talent of Trinket Bramage, vocalist extraordinaire; Colette Lovelace, vocalist virtuoso and lyricist; Christopher Bass, resident cock-rocker; and Allison Curval, composer, keyboardist, and

People Magazine‘s Top 100 most beautiful people (….yeah right); The Clockwork Dolls are currently in the studio working on their upcoming EP, “When Banners Fall,” to be released in Fall of 2012.

Press:

“The Clockwork Dolls music is a delicately woven tapestry telling stories from a forgotten time. Each song comes together in tight clockwork precision, something Copernicus himself would appreciate. [The songs] tell a remarkable tale and paint a vivid picture in the mind.”
Maynard BlackOak - Darkfaery Subculture Magazine

“So, not an ordinary rock group here? Got that right. The music is symphonic and dramatic, using strings, keyboards and guitar plus Helene’s clear and powerful voice to build a full, operatic sound.”
Paula O’Keefe - Doom! Magazine

“[T]the Clockwork Dolls' unique blend of operatic vocals, strings, and electronica get audience members marching in approval. [They perform] an unforgettable cover of Lady Gaga's "Pokerface"...”
Alison Schwartz - Gothic Beauty

“Classically induced, Dramatis Personae is a release to own if you want true Steam Punk with unbound intelligence. Each song is a story that keep you entertain with wonder and splendor... Check this gem out today!”
Rev. Gira - Culture Asylum Magazine

“Baltimore, Maryland's The Clockwork Dolls state in their bio that their music is intended to create an elaborate world that is both familiar and strange, and when listening to the band's debut album, one can easily become lost in the immersive atmosphere.”
Ilker Yücel - ReGen Magazine

“... [N]o other group has come up with anything quite like this. The Clockwork Dolls have any (remotely) similar acts beat on ambition alone.”
Gabriel Ricard - Unlikely Stories
