Veronica Barnes II(A.K.A. Ronnie) is a bassist and an aspiring musical artist. She focus on her passion, and that is metal music. As a kid, her parents thought her to playing violin, piano and singing as they hope her to become an classical musician someday. But as time went on as she grows up the pressure & strictness of her parents cause her to be rebellious and they didn't like her attitude towards them nowadays as she gets sick of them not giving her freedom to do other things outside their guidance.During her sophomore year in highschool, 3 of her classmates introduce her to metal music by bringing her to a concert, and she quickly fell in love with the genre. That day, this lead her to get inspired and she found her calling; to become a metal musician. Ronnie learns how to play bass and guitar so she could make her own music.Eventually, 4 of her fellow highschool students heard about this and they recruited her to be part of their band named "Constellations" whom later changed their name to "Rosethorn" after their graduation, as she became one of the founding members of the bandSince then, she's currently touring with her fellow bandmates and the band slowly gaining popularity to their city and also in a few states. With things going to the right direction as she wanted, Ronnie is on the road to become a well-known musician and hopes her band will have the recognition they deserve.Outside Rosethorn, she also perform as a solo artist.
