Sacred Dominion is a collection of musicians from diverse musical backgrounds and influences that have come together to create a a brand of music that crosses demographic lines and genres from rock to metal. Their brand of music  is progressive, powerful and melodic with an often conceptual lyrical undertone that will entertain as well as make you think.

SD was the musical concept of Mario Brescia and Daniel Corso back in 2005 when they played a music festival event known as Bandanarama 4. Playing The Who song, "The Real Me" together with Jeff Anzelone, they decided that Jeff was a good fit to be part of the anchor of the band. After putting together a Christmas benifit show with a great group of musicians, Jeff found the other end of the SD anchor, bass player Benjamin Chiarini.  The four started writing music together once or twice a month over a few beers until the music and songs came together one day and they realized they had something special.


As the band jelled doing live shows  the energy and demand from the audiences propelled SD to go into the studio and record the music. There, working with Dave Watson, they found their keyboard player and missing link to the music and a new member of The Dominion. Dave provides a tasteful plate to go with the incredible monster bass lines of Chiarini and the attacking precision of Anzelone on the drums. Together with Corso's guitar style and Brescia's belting vocal, Sacred Dominion has created a set of songs that could only be written together by great friends with great chemistry and huge hearts with a passion for life and music.


Going forward, Sacred Dominion is looking forward to the long awaited release of their first CD and being able to give their fans something to listen to in their cars and a small piece of something that was created in a small corner of the world through great inspirations. They are also looking forward to getting back out to doing live shows and spreading The Dominion around the world!
