Video: LEAVES' EYES Performs With New Singer For First Time
LEAVES' EYES made its live debut with new singer Elina Siirala on Sunday, April 17 at the Hammersonic festival in Jakarta, Indonesia. Fan-filmed video footage of the band's performance can be seen below.
LEAVES' EYES announced this past weekend that it had parted ways with Norwegian singer Liv Kristine and replaced her with Siirala, a Finnish vocalist who lives in London, England.
Said LEAVES' EYES in a statement: "Liv was the female voice of the band since the beginning in 2003. Together we toured through fifty countries and five continents. Moreover, we recorded six studio albums with outstanding singer Liv. We are full of pride in what we have reached together!
"From the bottom of our hearts, we want to thank Liv for amazing thirteen years of being our front lady, the work we have done together and all the passion for music that we shared all these years! We wish Liv all the best for the future, her solo career and other projects!
"Liv will always be an important part of the LEAVES' EYES history but now we are looking forward to a new chapter and the new musical adventures of LEAVES' EYES!
"We embrace Elina with open arms and hearts! She is a fantastic singer and performer. Please, welcome the new female voice of LEAVES' EYES: sensational Elina Siirala!"
Liv Kristine stated: "I am highly proud of having been founding member and front lady of LEAVES' EYES, which has played a vital role in my life since 2003.
"Good luck, guys. Thank you for the amazing music, outstanding moments with our worldwide audiences, moreover, the passion we all share."
Liv added in a post on her personal Facebook page: "It's with sadness I see the latest news reaching you. That this chapter in my life would have to end so soon was not my intention. Life must go on. For all of us."
Kristine's husband is ATROCITY singer and LEAVES' EYES co-vocalist Alexander Krull, who produced all the LEAVES' EYES albums at his Mastersound Studio in Germany.
Said Elina: "I can't quite express how grateful and honored I am for being asked to join LEAVES' EYES, one of the most iconic bands in symphonic metal!
"I have the utmost respect for Liv and the band and what they've achieved over the years! I take on this challenge with a huge excitement and look forward to the new chapter in my career. It's truly thrilling to be working with such talented musicians who also are some of the nicest people I've met.
"My biggest passion is to make music and perform, so right now I can’t wait to see what the future will bring!"
There will be an earbook tour edition of LEAVES' EYES' latest album, "King Of Kings", released in June, including a new version and video for the song "Edge Of Steel", featuring Elina. There will also be a U.S. edition of "King Of Kings" with the new version of "Edge Of Steel" as a bonus track.

Ну, может быть, может быть. Может, это и для нее проект, вписывается. До этого я ее вообще не воспринимал. А это, как-то, дослушал до конца - и ничего.
что то мода пошла вокалисток менять как перчатки, у Nightwish научились видать, потом ещё и у них клуб появится бывших вокалисток, если до этого дойдет ))
Уфф то фест, а то я уж думал они соло такую толпищу народу собрали. Индонезия жжёт. Вот вам и мусульманская страна. Есть всё же места, где эти ребята адекватны.
ахаха, че за мода пошла сравнивать с порнозвездами. Сейчас смотрю клип Leaves Eyes - In to your light. В комментах Лив сравнивают с Sophie Dee. Лично мне они обе нравятся))))
