Listen to my interview and the music which I will be featuring today on The Queen of Wands Radio Show on ModSnap Radio with the enduring Goth Rock / Darkwave act The Awakening led by the Dark Romantic poet, singer, songwriter Ashton Nyte . He just released yesterday his 12th album of the same name via Intervention Acts.
The Awakening was formed in Johannesburg, South Africa in the late ’90s as the creative expression of vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Ashton Nyte, who was anointed as "Johannesburg's Bowie" for his widely varying musical
styles and theatrical performances.
The Awakening's sound incorporates numerous genres, including gothic rock, darkwave, post-punk, electronic rock, folk noir, new wave and more. "The Awakening" album follows Nyte's second book and eighth solo album 'Autumn's Children', which was selected as one of American Songwriter's Top 17 Albums of 2023. This new album is a celebration of the band's roots and influences. Nyte has collaborated with other musicians such Beauty In Chaos Michael Ciravolo , Mark Gemini Thwaite, just to name a few.
With a catalogue of over 300 released original songs, Ashton Nyte and The Awakening have enjoyed airplay and chart success on radio stations worldwide, with songs featured in popular television shows like 'Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin' and 'The
Purge'. Nyte has contributed to several scores, working with composer Ethan Gold for the movie 'Don't Let Go' (premiering at the Sundance Film Festival) and for the movie 'Pale Horse', directed by the late Pearry Teo. Thank you Shameless Promotion PR
