March 10, 2011, 13 years ago
Former NIGHTWISH singer TARJA TURUNEN has been invited to be a special guest at ANGRA's appearance at the Rock In Rio festival which will take place on September 25th at Olympic Park, Barra da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
A message from Turunen reads as follows:
“Rock in Rio is one of the biggest festivals and happenings in the world still today. It has been amazing to follow the stunning list of great performers in this event in the past. I am very delighted and happily surprised about the invitation I got from Angra to take part of their performance in Rio this year. It´s an honour for me and a lot of fun. I am sure that our fans will be excited about this collaboration, as we both parties are as well. I have known the guys from Angra for few years already and worked closely with Kiko Loureiro, so it’s nice to make this thing happen. As this is not my own show, we are starting now to check with the guys what songs will be both interesting and challenging for us to perform together. But for sure you can expect some surprises! We are going to have fun and rock together with the people in Rio! Can’t wait!”
"Heavy" acts on the Rock In Riol bill include METALLICA, MOTÖRHEAD, SEPULTURA, SLIPKNOT and COHEED AND CAMBRIA.
