In promotion of his current sophomore album release "Brand New Revolution", Ozzy Osbourne / FIREWIND guitarist GUS G. has just wrapped up a massive touring run, both supporting Kamelot and then successfully hosting guitar clinics all over Europe.
Now, GUS G. is launching a new promotional clip for the album track "What Lies Below", which features Elize Ryd (Amaranthe) on vocals. The stunning video-clip was once again shot by longtime visual design partner / director Patric Ullaeus (In Flames, Arch Enemy, Within Temptation, etc.) and can be seen here: https://youtu.be/kS-PLcAvuhk
Additionally, an interesting photo-clip for the "making of" process of the previous video for the album's title track can now be seen here: https://youtu.be/LnKKIQ5MSRU
In addition to further solo shows throughout the end of this year, GUS G. has now also revealed that his long-running melodic Metal band FIREWIND is finally returning to the spotlight with a new singer and selected live-activity in 2016. Henning Basse (Metalium / Sons Of Seasons), who had already toured with FIREWIND on various continents in 2007 as well as most recently with GUS G.'s solo-band, has been announced as new permanent singer for FIREWIND and will therefore be appearing on the band's upcoming performances at the 70000 Tons Of Metal Cruise as well as Graspop Metal Meeting next year.
