Former AFTER FOREVER Singer, GRIP INC. Guitarist Join Forces In REVAMP

October 20, 2009

Former AFTER FOREVER vocalist Floor Jansen has teamed up with Waldemar Sorychta (GRIP INC., ENEMY OF THE SUN) and keyboardist Joost van den Broek (ex-AFTER FOREVER, STAR ONE) in a brand new project called REVAMP.

After the breakup of AFTER FOREVER, Jansen decided she wanted to start over and present a new band to the public as soon as possible. To accomplish this, she joined forces with two additional songwriters to first compose, then record an album. A live band is soon to be formed after the CD's completion, which will get her back on stage where she belongs.

The first composer to join this new collaboration was found when Sorychta contacted her to inquire about her current activities and potential future cooperation. Being a fan of GRIP INC., Floor was honored by the possibility of working with Waldemar. Sorychta's unique style, combined with his experience as songwriter/producer, made Jansen's dream come closer to reality.

The second composer was found in AFTER FOREVER colleague Joost van den Broek. Asking Joost to join seemed logical because of his great keyboards and arrangements, and therefore his potentially valuable contribution. Despite his busy schedule, he wanted to join and get started immediately. With him on board, the songwriting team was complete!

The REVAMP sound will become a unique blend of the personal style listeners will recognize from these musicians.

Songs are currently being written and audio samples will soon be posted on the band's web site.

REVAMP's debut album is tentatively due in May 2010.
