raspy voice of frontwoman Michelle Macpherson

AraPacis (Ara-Patches) is a female-fronted metal band hailing from

Montreal, Canada. Formed in 2003 by guitarist Jerry Fielden, fronted by

Scots singer Michelle Macpherson, and supported by the keyboard wizardry

of ex-Rainbow member David Stone, their main goal is to re-create some

of the original aspects of 1970's Hard Rock and Progressive Rock and

fuse it together with 21st Century Prog Metal, Doom Metal & Metalcore to

make an interesting metal hybrid.


AraPacis have shared the stage with

acts such as Blaze Bayley, Uli Jon Roth, Anvil, Raven, the Agonist,

Doro, etc. They have now released 9 albums and 3 EPs. They have had

Honde of Di'Anno and Hollywood Monsters, Don Airey of Deep Purple,
