BIOGRAPHY

Ralf Scheepers

Ralf Scheepers (born 5 February 1965) is the vocalist for German heavy metal band Primal Fear. He has a relatively high-pitched tenor-esque singing voice and sometimes uses a shriek reminiscent of Judas Priest’s Rob Halford, although it is his baritone lows which give him a near four-octave range in the modal register.

He has also sung in Gamma Ray and Tyran’ Pace. Scheepers has also done guest vocals for the bands Scanner, Therion, Ayreon, and Shadow Gallery, and worked with Tom Galley on Phenomena’s Blind Faith album. He currently provides instruction for all around singing, music, studio and recording/processing techniques at RS Vocal Works in Baltmannsweiler, Germany. Writer Paul Stenning has described Scheepers as “the greatest example of strength in metal.

Jono Bacon

Jono Bacon has been playing since he was 8 years old, starting with drums, before moving to guitar and bass in his early teens. His joined his first band, Conspiracy, when he was 15, before setting up his own first band, Seraphidian, in his late teens.

He spent a number of years touring around the UK with Seraphidian before relocating to California and starting his next project, Severed Fifth, which played extensively with bands such as Exodus, Testament, Dublin Death Patrol, Forbidden, and others. He wrapped up the band when his son was about to be born.

Shortly before the pandemic, Jono decided to start Baron Carta, focused on heavy, melodic music, not constrained to any single style of metal. He writes all the Baron Carta music and lyrics, and produces every release.
