M.ILL.ION Announces New Guitarist

October 26, 2009

Swedish melodic rockers M.ILL.ION have announced the addition of guitarist Andreas Grövle to the group's ranks.

Commented M.ILL.ION founding member and bassist B.J Laneby: "[Andreas is] only 21 so he was a tryout for some time. He's done great, both on tour and in rehearsals, so we asked him to come aboard full time and I think he will suit the band perfectly. I understand he's been a fan and owns all the albums so he knows very well what we're about. Now he can leave the audience and step up on stage, where he belongs! Musically he's got a great tone and a wide register and visually has the look of a true viking!

"[We are] looking forward to writing, recording and touring the upcoming album with Andreas. We welcome a great musician and overall nice guy to M.ILL.ION."

Added Grövle: "I have known [M.ILL.ION's] singer Ulrich Carlsson and been a fan of the cool M.ILL.ION music for a couple of years. And when I got the call some months back about the guitarist position, asking me if I wanted to try out, I immediately said 'Yes!'

"The jokes are flying, we share the same kind of humour and playing with them is a lot of fun!

"I feel happy and honoured to be chosen as the new guitar player for this brilliant melodic rock band!"

M.ILL.ION's sixth studio album, "Thrill Of The Chase", was released in May 2008 via Metal Heaven. The CD was recorded between November 2007 and January 2008. Mixing was done in February at the world-class Bohus Studio (ABBA, STATUS QUO) in Sweden by Tobias Lindell and B.J Laneby.
