AFTER FOREVER Frontwoman To Sing With Symphonic Orchestra

November 14, 2006

AFTER FOREVER frontwoman Floor Jansen has issued the following update:

"On November 26 I will sing along with the great symphonic orchestra from The Netherlands on a special night called 'Games In Concert'. The orchestra will play music from video games and I will sing a song from 'Final Fantasy' with them. This exclusive event takes place in Vredenburg in Utrecht, The Netherlands. Show is between 8:15 p.m. and 11:00 p.m."

AFTER FOREVER has almost finished the recordings for its new, as-yet-untitled album for a spring 2007 release via Nuclear Blast Records. Produced by Gordon Groothedde (Dutch studio luminary),the record "not only contains great new songs but also a session with the Prague Symphonic Orchestra!" according to a press release. A European tour to coincide with the release is planned for early next year.

AFTER FOREVER's last album was "Remagine", which came out in 2005. The follow-up to 2004's "Invisible Circles" was recorded at Excess studio in Rotterdam, Holland and was mixed by Sascha Paeth and Philip Colodetti at the Gate studio in Wolfsburg, Germany.

AFTER FOREVER's former record label, Transmission Records, recently issued a two-disc compilation album containing the best songs from the band's first ten years of existence, plus previously unreleased material, non-album tracks, alternate takes, rarities and previously unreleased remixed versions. The set, which includes collaborations with such guest musicians as Sharon den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION),Arjen Lucassen and Damian Wilson (AYREON) and Marco Hietala (NIGHTWISH),entered the Dutch national album chart at position No. 69 upon its release in June.
