FLOOR JANSEN Set To Join PAGAN’S MIND For Amsterdam Show
November 28, 2011, 12 years ago
Dutch singer extraordinaire FLOOR JANSEN, formerly with AFTER FOREVER, currently fronting her own band REVAMP, is set to return to stage in her homeland joining PAGAN’S MIND in Amsterdam’s legendary venue Melkweg on December 16. This will mark her first Dutch live appearance since her burn-out earlier this year, which forced her to put on hold band activities until further notice.
Floor Jansen says: “As some of you might know, this is not the first time I join Pagan's Mind on stage, and this is a great chance for me to slowly work myself back where I want to be. I just tried out a bit joining Mayan on stage in Brazil, but singing with my Norwegian friends in Amsterdam will be special for me. Not only will it be the first show in a long time in my home country, but having the chance to sing with such a talented band again will be a special treat. I hope to see many of my Dutch friends in Amsterdam.”
Jorn Viggo Lofstad, guitar player and producer for Pagan's Mind, adds: “We met Floor for the first time when we jammed at the ProgPower festival in Atlanta in 2007, and we immediately established a friendship, which not only lead to Floor joining us on stage later that year, but also to a creative process between myself and her, resulting in a yet to be completed rock album that one day will surprise you all. Seeing how the business side of things eventually took its toll on Floor, we are very happy that her situation is improving and look forward to have her as our guest when closing 2011, which has been a great year for Pagan's Mind.”
