October 8, 2008, 15 years ago
Dutch prog-metal band PICTURE OF THE MOON have issued the following update:
"After a good co-operation of seven years Michiel Borkent has decided to leave Picture Of The Moon. Besides his excellent voice and characteristic sound, the thing we will miss most is his good company. We want to thank Michiel for all his effort.Picture of the Moon will continue! A lot of music has been written, and we are very excited to record it. The recordings will be postponed until we find a new singer. We are looking for a singer with a good clean voice and experience on
stage. Interested? Mail to zanger@pictureofthemoon.net."
A statement from Michiel Borkent reads as follows: "I want to thank Picture Of The Moon for all the inspiration of the past seven years. POTM helped me to develop myself as a keyboard player and later on also as a singer. After four years of living outside of Enschede the decision came to leave the band. I didn't feel sufficiently involved anymore in the creative process and couldn't give the 100% a band like POTM deserves. I'm deeply convinced that the band will keep growing as a very creative and uniquely sounding band and wish them all the best for the future."
