LIV KRISTINE Working On New Music With Former THEATRE OF TRAGEDY Bandmates RAYMOND ROHONYI And TOMMY OLSSON
Leaves' Eyes vocalist Liv Kristine - who launched the band in 2003 - was recently fired and replaced by Finnish singer Elina Siirala, who made her live debut with the band on April 17th at the Hammersonic Festival in Jakarta, Indonesia. The band has been raked over the coals since the news broke, and fans have been getting two sides to the story from Leaves' Eyes and Liv Kristine respectively.
Liv has posted the following update, capping it off with some surprise news.
"Dear Fans & Friends! I'm sending you all my love and thankfulness - you all have been there for me during these rough times. Music is our common love and I have so much in my musical heart and soul that I would like to share with you.
I am so proud of my fanclubs and everybody believing in me. Let's look into the future!
Can't wait to work with Ray and Tommy Olsson!"
Liv is referring to former Theatre Of Tragedy bandmates Raymond Rohonyi and Tommy Olsson. It was revealed to BraveWords in December 2015 during Liv's tour with Raymond as a special guest that the pair would work on a song for her next solo album, and that Olsson was also involved. Stay tuned for more information.
Following is an excerpt from BraveWords scribe Carl Begai's interview with Liv and Raymond:
CB: Any chance of a live DVD to commemorate the tour? It’s a reunion that nobody expected…
Ray: “I hope not. I really hate seeing myself on screen…”
Liv: “I don’t know. I’m kind of old fashioned. I really like the old style of things: you go to a concert, you have that experience, you go home with great memories of that night.”
CB: How about dragging Ray kicking and screaming into the studio to record a song or two? For old time’s sake. That, and you know the diehard Theatre of Tragedy fans would lose their minds.
Liv: “You know what’s going to happen. The last album that was produced at Mastersound was the Leaves’ Eyes album (King Of Kings), so next up is a Liv Kristine solo album. I would really like to have Tosso (Thorsten Bauer / guitars) write a song with Ray in mind. I’ve told the record company it’s going to be in the same vein as Vervain and that it would be perfect to have Ray on the album.”
Ray: “We talked about it the other day, and Liv would like to have me on the album growling for her upcoming recordings. It doesn’t mean I’m back in the music business, though. There still some of it left in me so that I enjoy performing, but I don’t want to do the business thing again. It doesn’t make any sense to do that unless you do as Liv’s done with having these other bands and the studio and all that. It’s especially difficult being in the music business if you live in Norway because it’s so damn expensive, too.”
Fan-filmed video from the show in Moscow, Russia at the Volta Club can be viewed below.

Не было бы счастья фэнам театра трагедии... А насчет вида, посмотрите на Николь Кидман или Анджелину Джоули без грима, да сейчас и с гримом уже. Возраст, никакой хирург не поможет.
