Versailles newest album "Sacrifice" will be released worldwide in 2011. "Sacrifice" was produced and written by Dianna St. Hilaire. Assistant producer and engineer on the CD is Eric Greedy. Dianna has been referred to in the past as the Gothic Tori Amos and is now writing songs that fall between the lines of the 70's and 80's with roots from bands like "Depeche Mode" and "Joy Division".

The songs are dark and ominous yet fun and inviting. Synthpop sounds with distinct melody lines and aggressive orchestrations. Songs encompass a wide variety of subject matter including love, vampires, war, the human soul, strength and struggle.

Versailles has released multiple albums that have either been well received or just outright hated. Interest in Versailles prior albums spans the globe from places like Japan, Europe, The Middle East, even down into Mexico and South America. Versailles has toured the greater United States and is currently situated in Los Angeles. Versailles was most recently in the film "Black Room Doom" written by producer Kim Fowley of popular 70's band "The Runaways".

Versailles is now equipped with three beautiful female members. Dianna St. Hilaire- Vocals, Keytar, Stephanie Rose- Bass, Marie Ilene- Drums. And the newest non-girl member is Shaun Richards- Guitar. Versailles will be performing at Silver Factory Studios July 15th followed by a performance at this years Pink Parlour Festival, Teen Music Summit and a US tour in the fall. Performances include burlesque and cabaret attire, bananas and keytars. Get out your petticoats and corsets.

Press Reviews

Morticia Devine- Underground Press

Believe is a beautiful and haunting album from Dianna St. Hilaire, the solo artist behind Versailles. The lyrics are almost innocent in its own shadowed sadness No sleep till midnight, my lips still sewn tight, a lullaby couldn't put me to sleep tonight�, and Dianna's voice is tender and celestial with an undertone of desolation.

Jennifer Layton- Indie Music

How perfect that I just came home from seeing Tim Burton's Corpse Bride before playing this CD. Versailles is a darkpop mistress with gothic influences and a voice that can be breathy and innocent even when she's rasping and pleading and crying out to the heavens.

Laura T Lynch- Kweevak

Dianna's music is darkwave, alternative with atmospheric piano chords. She pens shadowy lyrics, but her sweet high ranging voice keeps the songs from being too from being to scary, yet her music is haunting. Dianna sings with raw emotion and her clasical piano playing adds character and originality to her songs.

Emily ONeary- Rock City News

A talent scoutt was sitting with me that evening and stated that Versailles is the personification of what it takes to be a superstar. Hew writing is insightful and poignant. Her stage presence is utterly unforgetable, and her musicianship as well as her looks posses that rarist of charisma that one cannot manufacture. She was born to perform

Excuse me, I'd like to apologize on behalf of fans of Versailles ~Philharmonic Quintet~ for the childish comment below this one. Not all fans of Japanese bands act like weeaboos like that.
(That said, not to push anything on you, but in all honesty, assuming by your profile info that you formed a year after the Japanese band formed, I think it would have done you a bit more good to change your own name instead of getting them to change theirs :s Pardon my opinion.)
Otherwise, your music videos are interesting. :-) Sorry about the long message.
