Eluveitien viulisti jätti yhtyeen, yhtye etsii korvaavaa viulistia kiertueelleen
Sveitsiläinen folk metal-yhtye Eluveitie tiedottaa, että sen viulisti Nicole Ansperger on jättänyt yhtyeen perhesyihin vedoten. Nicolen viimeinen esiintyminen yhtyeen kanssa tulee tapahtumaan 5. päivä syyskuuta Saksassa järjestettävillä In Extremo-festivaaleilla. Eluveitien maailmankiertue jatkuu kuitenkin tämän esiintymisen jälkeen ja yhtye etsiikin korvaavaa viulistia loppu kiertueelle, mikä kestää aina joulukuun 15. päivään asti . Jos olet pestistä kiinnostunut, lisää tietoa löydät esimerkiksi yhtyeen facebook-sivuilta. Yhtye sekä Nicole Ansperger kommentoivat eroa seuraavanlaisesti:
“Unfortunately, it can be extremely difficult to manage personal obligations and take care of a family alongside a life of constant touring, and Nicole’s priorities are with her family – where they should be. We are parting amicably and would like to thank Nicole for the good times and her musical contribution. It’s been an honour to share stage and studio with such a talented musician!“ – Eluveitie
“Dear fans,
as mentioned before, it can become pretty difficult to reconcile personal obligations and the touring life. A lot of things have changed within my family and my personal situation during the last twelve months; and now my familial situation makes it impossible to me to be on the road with my band constantly.
After careful consideration and with a heavy and bleeding heart I made the desicion to leave ELUVEITIE.
I was a very hard step to me and I will miss ELUVEITIE – the music, the band, the crew and very much also YOU, the fans!
I wanna thank you all – you‘ve been the best fans of the world to me! You rock, you‘ve been wonderful and I won‘t forget you!
Also I‘d like to thank my mates in ELUVEITIE – thank you for the amazing and intense time we had together! Yo‘`ll always be in my remembrance! I wish you all the very best for your future ways and of course I wish you a awesome new fiddle player. :)
This certainly doesn‘t mean an end to my musical career. Music will always be a very important part of my life and who knows – maybe we‘ll see each other again one day.
Keep on rockin‘, guys & girls!“ – Nicole Ansperger
