Timo Tolkki And REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE Leave Frontiers Records
May 28, 2008, 16 years ago
Former STRATOVARIUS leader/guitarist Timo Tolkki has issued the following update in regards to his new project, REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE, parting ways with Frontiers Records:
"Yesterday I finally got confirmation that we are able to do this. They simply were not the right label for us. That became clear in the last few months. I would describe the experience with Frontiers Records with the word: "interesting".I am currently negotiating with several interesting labels, but I haven't made any decision yet. There is a lot of interest and that feels good.
We were offered an extensive 20 date Latin American tour for this December.
I am also already (well it's been over 2 years since I wrote "New Era" songs) writing new songs and can't wait to go to studio and on the road with these energetic and positive guys I was blessed to find. We will keep you posted regularily about what is happening on our camp.
Many thanks from all the support you have shown in the las weeks. We will not forget that.
You can listen/download full version of the song 'Revolution Renaissance' with lyrics from the player."
