Chiron
This door feels like stone. The words “Children of the Night” are carved deeply upon it.
Well, might as well take a breath and walk on in…
Ah, this place is dark, dreamy, intense, and at times frantic! From the shadows and ground-hugging layer of fog emerge the forms of musicians, a band, their sound clearly not bound by genre. This is surely not a place for the faint of heart!
These mysterious performers challenge you, the listener, at every opportunity. It seems their strength is the relationships that are formed as a result of the intimate collaborations in this artist’s process. So best to lose yourself to the music then, or perhaps those visuals projected onto the far wall? Unsettling, yet strangely relaxing…

Bio: Chiron is a band that will not be bound by genre. Formed in 1997 by vocalist Michael Aliani (aka Carrodus) after he left popular cult dark wave band Ikon, the original line-up included legendary Ikon bass player Dino Molinaro and members of Russian Rock band B2, Shura Bi-2 and Lyova Bi-2.
Originally a darkwave band, Chiron entered the new millennium fresh with new ideas to take its music far deeper than before. Chiron was soon exposed to the sounds of trip hop, electro and dark trance.
Though Chiron continues to evolve, never setting boundaries, one consistency has remained throughout, the deep spine tingling vocals of Michael Aliani.
2024 sees the creative process begin once again for Chiron. An exciting time to see what can be created. What boundaries can be pushed. Joining Michael and Dino in this process is guitarist Ivan Bullock. Ivan has been a close friend of the band for many years.
Live, Chiron has played at some of Australia’s premiere music events. From large festivals to small intimate gatherings.
