ANDRÉ MATOS: Lyon Acoustic Performance To Air This Weekend

August 8, 2008

France's Radio Metal will broadcast the complete André Matos (ex-ANGRA, SHAAMAN) acoustic show held on February 26, 2008 at the Double 6 in Lyon, France. The program will air this Sunday, August 10 starting at 8:00 p.m. (GMT+1),with a rebroadcast on Monday, August 11 starting at 4:00 a.m. (GMT+1).

Fan-filmed video footage of Matos performing the song "Carry On" acoustically on February 26, 2008 at the Double 6 in Lyon, France can be viewed below.

Matos recently inked a deal with SPV for the European release of his solo debut, "Time to be Free". The CD — which came out in Japan on August 22 via Avalon/Marquee Inc. — was produced by Roy Z (BRUCE DICKINSON, HALFORD, JUDAS PRIEST) and Sascha Paeth (KAMELOT, EDGUY, RHAPSODY, FREEDOM CALL) between November 2006 and February 2007 at Ultra Sonica and Brainless Brothers Studios in São Paulo, Brazil and at Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany.

SHAAMAN (formerly SHAMAN) — the Brazilian band featuring former ANGRA members Matos, Luis Mariutti (bass) and Ricardo Confessori (drums) — officially called it quits in October 2006. The break-up, which was long rumored, was attributed to personal and musical differences. The group has since reformed under the SHAMAN moniker, featuring drummer Ricardo Confessori alongside guitarist Leo Mancini, vocalist Thiago Bianchi and bassist Fernando Quesada.
