Creeping Death Designs is a one-women clothing company on a mission to create innovative and exciting heavy metal merch. These are not your basic band tees, CDD makes dresses, skirts, crop tops, flannels and more using officially licensed t-shirts. Each one of a kind creation is handmade in Salem, Massachusetts by designer Christina Schwarz.
Night Demon, consisting of Jarvis Leatherby (vocals/bass), Armand John Anthony (guitar) and Dusty Squires (drums), now have their sights set firmly on the future. Although the coronavirus crisis has temporarily grounded their tour plans, the band are plotting their triumphant return to the live arena as soon as global health and safety restrictions permit. When that magnificent time comes, there will come another night in another venue when Night Demon conjure magic, make history, and place us all in a collective trance once again.
