Biography

In the vein of melodic power metal bands with female vocals, INSATIA draws it's inspirations from the great genre giants of Europe such as Nightwish and Epica.
Insatia's beginnings were in the mind of guitarist Jon "DUCK" Harris, who in Spring 2008 began a new project, Atomic Revolution. After numerous incarnations, the project was retitled Insatia and released a debut EP entitled "Left Behind" (2009) featuring vocalist Karri. Numerous lineup changes followed in an attempt to form a dependable team of committed musicians. It was not until 2012 that a stable lineup was achieved with Jon Harris joined by drummer Mike Jester and Vocalist Zoe Federoff. A debut album was released entitled "Asylum Denied" (2013) and a following across the globe arose in appreciation, praising the "ethereal" vocal work of Zoe and the masterful song writing of all musicians involved.

In 2014 Jon Harris and Mike Jester resigned from Insatia for personal and scheduling reasons. Vocalist Zoe recruited guitarist Matt Hanna of LASTWATCH, and drummer Seth Booze to continue the band and take it in new directions. Additional musicians Matt Federoff and Kirk Feagin were added for live shows. The first show with the new lineup was October 1st, 2014, in Mesa AZ opening for SONATA ARCTICA, DELAIN, and XANDRIA. Legendary producer and bassist for SERENITY Fabio D'Amore then announced his position as producer on Insatia's upcoming sophomore album.

The second album is well underway with an expected 2015 release. The first song from the new album, "Act of Mercy," was debuted live on October 1st and the first single off the new album, "We Are The Grey," will be released with an accompanying music video in early 2015.
