Cassandra from Resin Sun

Story

Resin Sun is the current music project of Will and Cassandra Rusk, the married duo has been writing music together in various emanations for over 15 years. With Resin Sun, the pair has created a sound that they dubbed "Rivetwave", a high-energy mixture of industrial, dark synth, and post-punk. Mostly inspired by 80s and 90s bands such as Skinny Puppy, Chemlab, KMFDM, Soft Cell, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, early Ministry, and Sisters of Mercy. Cassandra and Will use Resin Sun to aspire to the dark substance that sustained many of us for so long, a now trace energy that's becoming harder and harder to capture in today's homogenized and pressure washed society. Will has been a practicing musician since the age of 17 teaching himself to play guitar, bass, keyboards and eventually produce his own work. His vocals bring high energy and chaos into the mix in a style that calls back to Einstürzende Neubauten and Chemlab. Cassandra is an untrained ethereal vocalist with a passion for singing from a young age. In addition to pulling us into the Aether, she contributes heavily to the synth arrangements and production of the songs. As well as creating all of the visual artwork and videos that accompany their Rivetwave sound.
