Italian gothic metallers GODYVA welcome their new bass player, Paela. After the separation from Nick Barah and several intensive auditions, the gothic metal band led by Lady Godyva has finally found with Paela not only an excellent musician, but also a guy with all what is required to join the "family" called Godyva.

Says Paela: “For me it's a huge pleasure to join this band. Everybody work professionally and with the right ambition and humility. I can't wait to play with them live!”

Lady Godyva states: “We've been lucky enough getting the chance to check several very talented bass players, but Paela soon seemed to be on a higher level to me... and then it's a great wag with his hometown strange dialect!”

Drummer Enyo: “I've never felt in my entire life a feeling so marked and powerful between my drums and the bass lines.”

G.G.Gohm (guitar): “Paela is cool! When you feel so artistically stimulated by another musician it means that you were made to play in the same band!”

Botys Beezart (keyboards): “A real musician: exceptional technique, melodic taste and excellent arranger!”

Giovanni Zaccaria, aka "Paela", besides being currently a member of a famous DREAM THEATER tribute band (YTSEJAM KR) and having played in the past with bands rather renowned of the Italian underground scene as ARTIFEX and DOPOLAVORO FERROVIARIO, as also often played in support of artists like PAUL GILBERT and VIRGIL DONATI during their Italian clinic tours.

On July 26th Paela will play his first concert with Godyva in the Italian city of Bari at the venue La Nueva Vida. This will certainly be an excellent opportunity to test the new version of a band that has always been in continuous growth.
