Background notes
Archive material and source history
Follies & Vices formed in Los Angeles when vocalist Celeste Blackwood met guitarist Ethan Hayes at an open mic night. They later added bassist Anya Petrova and drummer Marcus Vega. In 2017, they released their debut album 'Echoes of the Void,' which introduced their atmospheric blend of Gothic rock and ethereal folk.
The song 'Red Wine' from that album became their most recognizable track, with its moody melody and themes of heartbreak. Other songs like 'Don't Tell Me You Love Me' and 'Gold' followed a similar introspective path. The band released two more albums, 'Shadow of the Sun' in 2019 and 'The Wake of Time' in 2022.
Celeste Blackwood's outspoken comments about the music industry and mental health advocacy sometimes drew attention away from the music itself. The band faced rumors about drug use, which they denied. Their sound remained consistent across their releases, anchored by Blackwood's vocals and Hayes' guitar work.
