Dragony Welcomes New Vocalist Maria Nesh Into The Band

Austrian symphonic power metal band Dragony has announced that longtime collaborator Maria Nesh has joined the band as a full time member. A statement from the band reads as follows:

"Mighty Dragoons! On the heels of the announcement of our big European tour in January 2026 with Ensiferum and Freedom Call, Dragony promised you some more news, and here they are: Their long-time collaborator and frequent special guest vocalist for their live shows, Maria Nesh (Red Eye Temple), is joining Dragony as a full-time member starting with the January tour! As you know, touring can sometimes pose considerable challenges for bands, especially when it comes to scheduling; and so they made the decision to switch to a two-singer lineup in Dragony, to enable them to not only expand their musical scope by adding an additional female voice, but to also do more shows and tours than before. This means that starting with the tour in January, Dragony live shows will generally feature both singers, except in instances where one singer can't make it for scheduling or work-related reasons, in which case such shows will be performed solo by the other singer.

Please help the band to welcome Maria into the band as a full-time member, and get your tickets now for the upcoming tour with Ensiferum and Freedom Call."

Maria Nesh adds: "After playing with Dragony many times over the past years, it's going to be fun to be working with them on a full-time basis and to perform even more shows with Dragony in the future. I am also looking forward to working on new music in the studio with the guys, and maybe there will be some exciting news to be shared in this regard very soon. For now, I'm happy to be Dragony's new 'Valkyrie' and look forward to the big European tour in January! See you on the Road to Valhalla!"
