January 16, 2008, 16 years ago
Former THE GATHERING singer Anneke van Giersbergen, who now fronts AGUA DE ANNIQUE - has posted the following update about upcoming shows and writing new material:
"Hi Everybody! Last weekend we have played our very first festival with Agua de Annique! And not just any festival... we played the Noorderslag fest in Groningen Holland. Here's where all 'hip and happening' Dutch bands play in front of an eager audience and many people from the bizzz :-) We were very pleased to be there!And so we are moving on in 2008... We played a very new song called 'My Town' in Groningen and we are prepping a few more to expand our live set. The year started of in a fantastic way when Joris and I were joined by my lovely friend Danny Cavanagh and played the Little Devil Club in Tilburg Holland. We had no time for a proper rehearsal, but there was some magic in the air that night I guess. Thank you to those of you who came to see us, Danny & Joris and also Paul & LD for having us.
I have written a bunch of new tunes for the next album already and we will hop into the studio one of these months to make a nice and relaxed start. But first! We'll play the clubs and festivals in Holland and abroad. The Dutch festival season is traditionally opened by the great Paaspop festival and we will be playing there on March 22nd.
I am very happy with the start of this new year! Anneke."
