LEAVES' EYES Bassist Unable To Join Band On Tour; BLIND GUARDIAN / TARJA Bassist To Sit In
November 6, 2009, 14 years ago
Due to health concerns, bassist Alla Fedynitch will not be performing with LEAVES' EYES for the remainder of the year.
Oliver Holzwarth (BLIND GUARDIAN, TARJA) will fill in for her, allowing Leaves' Eyes to perform all shows of the upcoming Beauty And The Beast Festival tour.
Leaves' Eyes guitarist Tosso recently stated: "The preparations for the Beauty and the Beast Tour are in full swing and we all are looking forward to finally start the tour. It will be very exciting for us to perform the vehemence and energy of the new songs from Njord for the very first time. These songs are fun to play and demand full concentration and power from the whole band. Some songs are real beasts according to the title for this tour, haha. Of course there will be well known songs in the setlist such as 'Farewell Proud Men' but we also want to focus on the Njord songs. Our premiere for the new show will be in a few days, on the 31.10.2009 in Triora, Italy! ELIS are old friends of us and together with SIRENIA and STREAM OF PASSION, people can expect an opulent spectacle with this tour package. Let the games begin!"
