As you probably remember, Eluveitie recently lost three band members. Now, the band announced that they want to take some time to carefully look for new members and find the perfect new line-up. But at the same time, the group will play every single show already confirmed for this year. So, they recruited talented step-in session musicians to play all their upcoming shows this year. For a few selected dates, Eluveitie unveil even a fourth guest: Liv Kristine (ex-Leaves' Eyes, ex-Theatre Of Tragedy) will share the stage with them and sing classics like "A Rose For Epona". How do you think she will fit in with Eluveitie?

"Cancelling shows is an absolute no-go to us! It's like letting our fans down! Unless there's an absolutely impossible situation by 'higher power' or so, we will not cancel one single show!", says frontman Chrigel Glanzmann.

The first appearance of Liv with Eluveitie will take place at the Masters Of Rock Festival in Czech Republic on July 16th. More shows with Liv Kristine will be announced soon!

The band comments: "We're super happy to have Liv with us for a handful of shows! It's an honour and also another great sign of how the metal scene stands together and musicians help out musicians!"




The Swiss metallers have played the first couple of shows with Michalina Malisz, Jonas Wolf and Alain Ackermann as well.
