AVATARIUM Guitarist MARCUS JIDELL Releases 'Huldra' Video
December 1, 2013, 10 years ago
Lion Music has unveiled a video for the track 'Huldra', taken from Pictures From A Time Traveller, the debut instrumental album from guitar-master Marcus Jidell (AVATARIUM, ex-EVERGREY, ex-ROYAL HUNT).
Marcus wanted something a little different to the thousands of “mimed” guitar videos and with the help of video producers Steff Granström and Andreas Hillerborg came up with a video which both manages to deliver the feel of this particular track but also give fans something new.
Marcus states: "To catch a different vibe I brought a mobile studio and a Marshall stack to the country side one early morning in November where we recorded and filmed a one take of 'Huldra'. I didn't want the regular "mimed" video thing so I just played it once again, I wanted it to be raw and honest and to show how I improvise around themes when playing guitar live. I think that we captured the spirit of the song both playing wise and with the way it was filmed and I hope people who see this will think the same."
Lion Music and Marcus would like to say a big thank you Steff Granström and Andreas Hillerborg for making this video and would also want to thank Martin "E-type" Eriksson for providing the location and Sigge Viking for assistance.
