A South America Geography Lesson With THE GATHERING

May 15, 2011

Dutch/Norwegian rockers THE GATHERING will embark on a tour of South America, dubbed "Ghost Ride Tour 2011", in late June/early July. A video message from the band's keyboardist, Frank Boeijen, in which he details the upcoming trek using a map can be viewed below.

THE GATHERING's latest album, "The West Pole", was released in North America on June 2, 2009 via Season of Mist. The CD was issued in most of Europe on May 4, 2009 via the group's own label, Psychonaut Records.

"The West Pole" marks the recording debut of new THE GATHERING singer Silje Wergeland, who was previously in the Norwegian band OCTAVIA SPERATI. It also includes two very talented guest vocalists, Anne van den Hoogen and Marcela Bovio (STREAM OF PASSION),along with other guest musicians.

Singer Anneke van Giersbergen announced her departure from THE GATHERING in 2007. She has since launched a project called AGUA DE ANNIQUE, which has released three albums so far: "Air" (2007),"Pure Air" (2009) and "In Your Room" (2009).
