Kai Hansen joins Unisonic with Michael Kiske

Post by AAAAAAAAAA » Thu Mar 17, 2011 3:11 am

Many fans all over the world have been anticipating this for years, now it
comes true - Michael Kiske and Kai Hansen teamed up again, Kai joined
UNISONIC!

Michael Kiske: "After so many years of abstinence I had a lot of fun doing
my first live shows with Unisonic in summer 2010, so I agreed to do the
short world tour with Avantasia. It was a great experience to be on stage
with all those great artist, but with Kai it was something different: We
instantly felt the magic again and had a lot of fun together on and off
stage. We both realized that we want to be together in band again. He was
interested in the open musical concept of Unisonic and finally asked me if
he can join the band. I talked to my bandmates and they all felt great about
it. His talent as a guitarist and songwriter is an enrichment for the band
and we are looking forward to his contribution for the music of Unisonic."

Kai Hansen will stay a member of his band Gamma Ray and play all scheduled
shows. Currently he is writing songs with the Unisonic guys for the long
anticipated debut album, which is planned to be released at the end of 2011.

Unisonic:
Michael Kiske (vocals)
Mandy Meyer (guitars)
Kai Hansen (guitars)
Dennis Ward (bass)
Kosta Zafiriou (drums)
We'll finally have Michael Kiske touring in a hard rock/metal band with Kai Hansen. Great!


BTW...what is it with these "supergroups" that are springing up recently? Jani and TK in Cain's Offering....Andre Matos and Tolkki in Symfonia, and now Hansen/Kiske in Unisonic. I bet the very bad market for music has forced everyone into a corner. Maybe this is the only way to get attention these days... :buh:

Wow! All I hope is that Hansen writes the songs. :)

Regarding superbands: either the members are getting too old to start something fresh, or Lady Gaga stole their money.

Hmmm...

The song is so short it makes me wanna listen to more.

I hope it's not the best song in the album. :)
