Great news are coming in. Arjen Anthony Lucassen has decided to form a band after 10 years of studio work and a small tour with Star One project.

Stream Of Passion will be a band blending mysterious gothic vocals, metal guitars and atmospheric trip-hop, with haunting pianos and live celli- and violin quartets.

Currently the band is formed of:
* Marcela Bovio - vocals, lyrics, violin
Young talented Mexican singer who performed on the latest Ayreon album, also fronting Elfonía.
* Arjen Lucassen - guitars, music
This man needs no introduction to fans of Ayreon.
* Lori Linstruth - lead guitars
Skilled American female guitarist residing in Sweden whom Arjen discovered via Yahoo Ayreon mailing-list.
* Johan van Stratum - bass guitar
Dutch bass player from the Rock Academy in Tilburg.
* Davy Mickers - drums
Dutch drummer who a year ago downloaded a special track from Lucassen's website to enter a musicians contest and used it to showcase his incredible drumming skills.
* Alejandro Millán - keyboards
Mexican pianist who with Marcela formed Elfonía.

The band is currently negotiating an album deal. So, all this can probably mean one thing, Arjen will probably go live soon!
