Sophia´s Crew
Forged in the Antwerp underground, Sophia’s Ark delivers a wall of sound where atmospheric melodies meet heavy, low-end gravity.
Our vessel navigates the deep waters of Progressive Rock and Stoner Metal, bringing a raw, ritualistic energy to the stage.
Experience the weight of the riff.
Set sail with the Ark.
The Sail
Marnik - Guitar & Keys
Born between instruments and schooled in the keys, Marnik is the Ark’s tactical engine. Whether he’s navigating a board game or a kickboxing ring, he provides the cold, rhythmic logic that steers the noise. Hiss riffs can take you on a journey.
The Sail captures the storm.
The Helm
Rick - Vocals
The Ark’s final piece and saving grace, arriving after two years of instrumental drift to claim the steer. The youngest of the crew but the sharpest of wits, Rick navigates the space between gut-wrenching screams and melancholic clarity.
The Helm defines the horizon.
The Anchor
Robin - Drums
Raised in the Kempen and drumming since before sticks existed, Robin is the Ark’s diplomatic powerhouse. A cat-dad with a taste for Tool and Death Metal who's rhythm will knock you off your feet. He doesn't keep time; he reinvents it.
The Anchor holds the line.
The Keel
Olivier - Bass
Forged in the Middle East and deaf in one ear. Indifferent to the distractions of stereo, he delivers a monolithic, centered pulse that keeps the drift between Zappa and Black Sabbath.
The Keel keeps the Ark upright.
