Guitarist Ruud Jolie (WITHIN TEMPTATION) will join AGUA DE ANNIQUE - the band led by former THE GATHERING singer Anneke van Giersbergen - for several shows this spring/summer, starting with the group's April 30 appearance at 'Rock'n Dark' festival in Istanbul, Turkey. Jolie will be filling in for regular AGUA DE ANNIQUE axeman Joris Dirks, who is unable to make the dates because he and his wife are expecting twins. Anneke says, "I'm very excited to go out and play with Ruud, who is both a great guitar player and a very nice guy."
