NARIA AND THE FLY …WAITING FOR LUNCH (2012)

Naria and The Fly …waiting for lunch is the first album from Naria and was released 2012. Marc started to write this first concept double album while studying music at the University. It is the first album of a trilogy.

Naria is the link between the supposedly opposing elements earth and air in this surreal story. Her journey begins in the anonymity of a hectic and dirty big city. Wandering disoriented, she is snatched away from the city and finds herself in wondrous scenarios. She has to find her way again and again in a jumble of memories and subconscious perceptions of her previous life. She is accompanied by a fly, an image of herself.

The girl is the only constant in a story that constantly changes its perspective, suddenly falling silent in the middle of an imagined sentence, only to seemingly start all over again at a completely new scene. The central players embody their own stretching musical substance in the form of leitmotifs. As they become increasingly involved in the plot, these leitmotifs likewise undergo a transformation.

Naria

Founded by Marc, Naria began with the vision of creating something unique. Guided by their love for storytelling and building up leitmotivs, the band blends surprising arrangements, engaging melodies, and meaningful lyrics to craft songs that resonate deeply. The idea was to create 4 albums that are connected by an overarching concept. Each of the 4 elements earth, air, fire and water represents one album.

In 2012, their first double album, Naria and the Fly …Waiting for Lunch, was released, finalized with the collaboration of numerous musicians. This ambitious project laid the foundation for what Naria stands for today. Each track contributes to a larger narrative, inviting listeners to dive into an immersive musical journey.

Combining catchy melodies, intricate structures, and unique storytelling, Naria takes listeners on a journey through musical landscapes that captivate progressive rock fans and casual music lovers alike. With two more double concept albums in the works, Naria looks forward to continuing their exploration of music and storytelling.

Upcoming albums

We are incredibly excited to announce that our third album Lyra-La has been finished this year! We will release it in the next few weeks. Lyra-La has been recorded over the last years in various recording studios. The album represents the element of water and tells the story of a drowning man who, in the end, no longer knows whether he is really drowning or dreaming moments of his life.
