TARJA - LONDON HEADLINE SHOW CONFIRMED PLUS NEW SINGLE & ALBUM
TARJA
LONDON HEADLINE SHOW CONFIRMED FOR OCTOBER,
PRECEDED BY NEW SINGLE & ALBUM THROUGH SPINEFARM RECORDS UK ...
TARJA HAS just announced a headline London date for Wednesday,
October 13th – only the third time that the former Nightwish
singer has played live in the UK under her own name.
The show will take place at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire in West
London, with a special guest act due to be confirmed shortly.
More immediately, however, Tarja will be releasing a new track, ‘Falling
Awake’, on July 19th as a vinyl 10” only via Spinefarm
Records UK.
This highly collectible format will be limited to 1000 copies, all of
them pressed onto ‘marbled’ vinyl & numbered by hand, and will be
available exclusively from online retailer What Records (www.whatrecords.co.uk
).
‘Falling Awake’ is the first track to be released from the
forthcoming Tarja outing, ‘What Lies Beneath’ – the second
full album beneath the ‘Tarja’ banner, the follow up to 2007’s ‘My
Winter Storm’.
This version of the track differs from the one that will appear on ‘What
Lies Beneath’ in that it features a special guest appearance from Five
Finger Death Punch and former Alice Cooper guitarist Jason
Hook. Mixing has been handled, as with much of the new album, by
renowned UK producer Colin Richardson, whose track record numbers
artists such as Slipknot, MachineHead & BulletForMyValentine.
The B-side of the 10” is ‘The Good Die Young’ – a specially mixed
version of the song from the new Scorpions album, ‘Sting In
The Tail’, with Tarja’s vocals now more prominent overall.
‘What Lies Beneath’ is scheduled for release on September 3rd 2010
via Spinefarm Records UK, preceded by single/video ‘Until My
Last Breath’ on August 16th.
Further UK shows & festival appearances are being looked into for
2011.
