I'm back!
Hi Guys and Gals,
The new album is finnished and has been sent to Germany for mastering, artwork etc.
The title will be "Notes from the Road", complete track listing is as follows,
1. Going Home 2007
2. Notruf Theme (instr.)
3. Can't wait another day
4. Cocaine
5. The long road home (instr.)
6. Intro Jam (live)
7. Check up from the neck up (live)
8. Falling of a drunken Horse (live)
9. Bridge of dreams (live)
10. All I want to be (live)
11. Giong Home (live)
It will be released in Germany and Finland early September.
I've put up new tour dates for Finland so check them out and come along with your friends for a good time. I will also announce the new bass player in time for the release. During the summer Anssi Vexby and Ako Kiiski will help out on bass duties.
The German tour dates in October-November will be up later.
Yesterday the Granfelt / Nikku guitar fest. played at Swengi in Järvenpää for the Puisto Blues festival. I apologize for not informing about this gig! I simply forgot! The house was packed and we had a good time. There are more gigs to come, check the gigs page!
For the US fans who write to me I'd like to say Thanks for the kind words but unfortunately at the moment there are no gigs planned. HOWEVER "The Sum of Memories" will be out on Grooveyard Records over there. http://www.grooveyardrecords.com/ has a lot of interesting guitars stuff so check it out.
Also at some point in the future my 3 first albums will be rereleased with a few bonus tracks. We just have to find the right time to do it.It would be nice to make a double cd with new artwork and booklet...
That's it for now, enjoy the summer and C U out there!
