Biography
In fact it’s difficult to locate Leandras musical position. She’s a girl of thousand faces walking in between them.
Leandra’s creator can look back to a long musical development. She has studied piano and composition in the former USSR and faced the cultural shock of an immigrant with humor and curiosity.
Being a concert pianist she played guitar in a grunge band, composing classical pieces she founded a jazz and a black metal project, not really sympathizing with lifestyles or ideologies…but curious of being used by music as a medium.
…The pure Leandra appeared on a warm spring night a space of time ago. All through the crystal forest rain drops played a sudden piercing melody the girl could not resist.
Worlds opened, exploded, flowed and she looked at them with the eyes of a child. Drop by drop…a small secret realm was being creating just for her.
It listened, broke in pieces and tremored to set itself back together in form of an unfathomed jibing emotional landscape between symbiotic all, nothing, time rotation, chaos and metamorphosis.
Quitting her grunge band Venusbabydoll in 2003 Leandra went on three tours across Germany with her friend and opposite Rya supporting Mila Mar and Letzte Instanz.
Her first six-track-EP has been technically produced at the 25hours Music Studio by Mike Thüner who has been Leandras first mentor in home recordings and taught her to stand on her own feet.
Currently Leandra produces her works all by herself with a helping hand of Oli (Letzte Instanz, Frogstar Battle Machine) - thanks a million, it’s a pleasure!
Leandra has now joined Jesus On Extasy under the pseudonym Ophelia Dax! Check www.myspace.com/jesusonextasy and enjoy us!!! By the way she works on a new record - so stay tuned!!

Rasputina is a cello rock ensemble composed of singer/cellist Melora Creager, and various, frequently changing band members. The current lineup includes Creager (cello), Daniel Dejesus (cello), and Dawn Miceli (drums).
Founded by Creager in 1992, they have long held true to their mission of enlightening the common man as to the power and versatility of the mighty cello. Historically influenced, and constantly costumed, Rasputina keeps a small legion of incredibly passionate admirers enthralled with their earnest musicianship. Considered to be quite a pioneer and visionary, Melora and her group have inspired countless young people to pick up the cello, and have re-inspired many uninspired string players. Rasputina considers this to be the finest payment for their work.
