Nitte Valo (ex-Battle Beast) joins Burning Point as a
new singer!
Finnish melodic metal band, Burning Point, recruited a
new singer and a new keyboardist. “2009 when we parted ways with Pasi (Hiltula),
we decided we would continue without an “official” player in the band and use a
“hired gun” in the gigs. Jarkko (Väisänen) was our first choice and he has been
with us for a while now. He is a solid player and really cool guy to be with. We
are very happy that he decided to join BP ranks as an official keyboardist",
band states.
Pete also decided to step down from the lead-vocalist
position and continue as a guitarist. “Well, it has been a one helluva ride for
15 years to handle both, vocals and guitar, but now we thought it was time to
try something totally new. I love playing and singing live, I love to be on the
spotlight…but also I want the band to be in constant motion and moving forward",
says Pete. “Nitte is perfect choice as a new frontma…oh woman : ), very powerful
voice and an awesome stage performer!”
“These guys are awesome and the music, just great! I
love all the Burning Point songs! I’ve been away from the world of heavy metal
for a while now, but now with these guys, I am back! I’m very excited and
anxious to start recording the new stuff and just waiting to be on stage with
Burning Point", Nitte explains.
Band will start recording the new album within two
weeks and the working title is "Polttopiste". More news coming very soon, stay
fired up!
