In a recent interview with BW&BK; scribe Carl Begai, TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA violinist Anna Phoebe discussed her plans of working and touring with UK prog metal band JUROJIN in 2010. Footage of Anna jamming acoustically with the band on two separate occasions is available below.
“I’m working with the guys from Jurojin because I was looking for a band to do some gigs," says Anna. "I tried to put a band together at home in London earlier this year because all the guys that play on the album are from Holland, so flying back and forth for rehearsals would be expensive. I couldn’t find the right kind of musicians, the sort of people that have the right sensibility about their playing. Then I met the Jurojin guys and things really clicked, so they’ve been learning how to play my music and we’re going to schedule some shows at some point. I’d love to work with Joost and the other guys again for a new album, but I’m also going to try writing with the guys from Jurojin. We had one session – a living room jam (see below) with me, the guitarist Nic, and tabla player Sim – where we did acoustic versions of two songs from my first solo album. They’re really open to working like that, and those are the kind of musicians I want to work with.”Go to this location for the complete story. Click here for information on Jurojin.
Anna's latest solo album Rise Of The Warrior is now available via iTunes.
