Septimus Orion


Septimus Orion is a recording project initiated with the release of its first studio album CAGED in August 2008. The album includes an audio version of Clifford Meth's short story Queers. This short story was originally published in god's 15 minutes by Aardwolf Publishing.

Veteran songwriter and musician Mark Radice joined the cast of Septimus Orion while continuing to compose and record for Public Television. For this work, Radice was nominated for an Emmy Award in 2008. Former front man and vocalist for Lodi hardcore punk band Rosemary's Babies, known as JR, joined Septimus Orion with a rerecorded version of his song Sanctioned Violence.
