About Gold Dinar
New Orleans, LA songwriters GeminiiDRAGON and Christian Simeon have come together to form their individual music paths and gotten together as The GOLD DINAR.


The duo has been individually paving out careers on the fringe in different paths. GeminiiDRAGON has been blazing a trail in the Blues/Blues Rock World with several albums to her credit and active touring. While Christian Simeon has been a pillar of constant and consistent industry movement over the course of 2 decades.

From Reggae Rock, to Jam Bands to Singer Songwriter based projects, he has been always on the cusps of the underground scene. He also has several albums and a vast touring history.

Well.. They have decided , hey if we're going to be life partners we might as well be absolute music partners as well. So in the Fall of 2024 The GOLD DINAR became a real thing.

With a debut EP 'The Future Decline OF A Digital World' being released on January 31st, 2025 (Nepotism Recordings/The Orchard). The pair is primed to take a musical journey not into the unknown but into the place they should be!

Charming Disaster is a goth-folk musical duo based in Brooklyn, NY, formed in 2012 by Ellia Bisker and Jeff Morris. Inspired by the macabre humor of Edward Gorey, Tim Burton and Charles Addams, the murder ballads of the Americana tradition, and the dramatic flair of the cabaret, they write playfully dark songs that tell stories about death, crime, myth, magic, science, and the occult. Charming Disaster’s music has been featured on the podcast Welcome to Night Vale, they have toured the United States and Europe, and have opened for Rasputina, Voltaire, and The Dresden Dolls. Recent appearances include Dragon Con, the Rochester Fringe Festival, and the Coney Island Sideshow stage. They are on tour behind their new album, THE DOUBLE (out May 16)

Goodbye Metro: Formed in 2012 by Hayley and Logan in Buffalo, NY. The band hits their stride as a duo with driving bass lines and haunting vocals that breathe new life into rock n' roll.

The Fiddle Witch spawned in Rochester, New York in October 2019 at The Spirit Room and captivates audiences with dark Scandinavian folk music on an ancient instrument. She has honed her craft at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland and the Eric Sahlström Institute in Tobo, Sweden and plays music for listening rooms and for folk dancing. The Fiddle Witch, a.k.a. Alyssa Rodriguez, performs traditional and original music from her travels on Swedish nyckelharpa (keyed fiddle). She has sold out her one woman show at Rochester Fringe Festival both in 2022 and in 2024, and headlined the American Swedish Institute’s Midwinter Festival in 2022.Stephanie Strange weaves song and story together, of hope and mourning from the past, present, and possible futures of humanity. Whimsical and playful, wry and cutting in turns, the music of Strange and the Familiars will leave you feeling connected and less alone in a world going mad.
