"Pyre of Dreams", 4th album by Perspehone's Dream , is now available! "Threnody", which is included in my current playlist, is the opening track from "Pyre of Dreams". I was inspired by the Lord of the Rings Trilogy when writing Lending his incredible talents to the project is none other than Vocal legend DC Cooper (Royal Hunt, Silent Force and too many other credits to list here). His amazing voice can be heard as the lead on two tracks, and backing vocals on many others. In addition to lending his vocal talent, DC was a pleasure to work with as co-producer/vocal producer and vocal coach during the sessions. "Android Dreams" and "Aphrodite" (featuring vocalist Heidi Engel) can be heard on our Garage Band page. Heidi is a very talented vocalist from Pittsburgh, PA. Both Persephone's Dream and Heidi are here on MySpace now, so stop by and show some love, people!
Marcel Coenen's 2nd solo cd, "Colour Journey" is available! Featuring yours truly on two tracks (the in-your-face thrasher "Traumatized To The Bone" and the softer/bittersweet "That Moment"). Also available is "A Live Time Journey", the DVD of Marcel's CD Release party. Featuring almost all of the musicians featured on "Colour Journey" and filmed in The Netherlands in January, 2006, the sound on this DVD is absolutely incredible and you have to see Marcel and all of the incredible talent involved in this project doing their thing live to believe it. The musicianship involved in this show was just astounding!! :)

"Lunasense", the next release from Bulgaria's Pantommind , is well under way. Drago (drummer extraordinaire) sent over a cd with a few rough mixes of songs and I'm still getting over the ass whoopin' they gave me. :) Vocal tracking for "To The Days Of Old" has been completed and I'm currently finishing up backing vocals for another song on the cd (along with a few surprises). Looking at a release date early 2007. Feedback from some close friends on "To The Days of Old" has been very positive, and I am incredibly proud to have collaborated with such an amazing group of musicians. It was also recently selected as one of the songs in Bulgaria's regional semi-finals for the Eurovision song contest. Pantommind can be found on myspace here .
As always, I'm writing/recording my own original material and doing my Online Administration duties for Fates Warning . Thanks, guys, for the many years of inspiration, and for allowing me the opportunity to give something back. I wouldn't be who I am as an artist today had I not been introduced to your music so many years ago.
More songs can be streamed/downloaded from my personal site . Check the link and stop by! Be on the lookout for a brand new site design within the next couple of weeks...
