Discography

The Bard

One man, one studio, total control.

Wizard Tattoo is the solo work of multi-instrumentalist Bram the Bard — every riff, vocal, mix, and hand-drawn cover made by one set of hands at Garage Fire Recordings in Indianapolis.

The project refuses a single genre, welding doom, stoner rock, progressive metal, psych, jazz and grunge into immersive concept records — worlds you fall into rather than albums you simply hear.

Every release threads into a larger tapestry: the Wizard Tattoo Universe, a discography-spanning mythology where knife fights, beasts and madmen recur across years of music. Lyrics pull from comics, horror and fantasy; the riffs draw blood.

It all starts with a man, a tattoo, and a dark voice in his head — and his long, glorious descent into madness.
