TAROT: Throat Infection Forces Concert Cancellations

May 19, 2006

Finland's TAROT, the group led by NIGHTWISH/ex-SINERGY bassist Marco Hietala, have been forced to cancel their previously announced gigs in Lappeenranta (May 19) and Helsinki (May 20) "because of Marco's throat infection," according to a posting on the band's web site.

As previously reported, TAROT have just released their long-awaited new single, "You", in Finland. The single contains two tracks: A straight-forward classic heavy metal song "You", taken from the upcoming full-length TAROT album, and a BLUE ÖYSTER CULT cover, "Veteran of the Psychic Wars". The as-yet-untitled new TAROT album is expected to be released during the fall.

TAROT recently released remastered versions of their first five studio albums along with the "To Live Again" live album previously released in Japan. Each CD includes special bonus track(s).

TAROT feature Hietala on bass/vocals, his brother Zachary on guitar, Janne Tolsa on keyboards, and Pecu Cinnari on drums.
