The webmaster for German metallers XANDRIA has issued the following update:

"To let you know what is happening in the Xandria camp and how it is going on, here is a little intermediate report.

As announced, the concerts that already have been planned now have been played with Lisa as stand-in on the microphone. At this time it can not be said if there will be more shows with her. A regular tour is earmarked only for the time with a new singer and a new album.

The next Xandria album is as said before almost completely written, but it can be recorded not until the new singer is found. Therefore it is unfortunately not possible to announce a release date for it.

The new singer is still not found, although the band has received many applications since February. Auditions have been done with some candidates and are going on.

So to every singer that has not applied so far: Please do so, because the search is being continued and there is still no deadline at this time! The search is over only at the time when a new singer is found. Infos and contact for applications can be found on www.xandria.de!

To the singers who have applied so far: If you have still heard nothing from the band, we are sorry to tell you that you are unfortunately not among the candidates for the auditions.

Nevertheless Xandria want to thank all of you for your demos and your commitment to provide your talent to the band!

Directly from the band we would like to tell all the fans that they hope to supply you with good news as soon as possible! Although they just can wait for the right candidate, they will do everything so that it can go on with the band and you can expect the next album in a not too distant future!"
