JESSI LEAVES CRYPTA

'AN UNSTOPPABLE FORCE IN METAL'

It has just been announced via Instagram that guitar virtuoso Jessica DiFalchi has left fast-rising all-female Brazilian Death Metal band, Crypta. 

Formed by ex-Nervosa members Fernanda Lira and Luana Dametto, Crypta are that rarest of bands (especially in Death Metal circles), where the band's presentation and sonic assault is matched by their skill and virtuosity.

Teamed with fellow guitar maestra Taina Bergamaschi, and touring virtually non-stop since lockdown, Crypta have become an unstoppable force in Metal. Jessica will leave a big space to fill, but we look forward to seeing what the future holds for both parties.
