ATTENTION VOCALISTS
Hello there! The hassle with the media seems to have died. We´ve been off tour for some months and we´ve had a nice and long vacation. It´s time to get back in business:
Nightwish is currently and actively looking for a new singer/front woman for the band. We need the obvious things: Looks , charisma, courage and, of course, a big voice. Good grasp of the English language is also very helpful. We don´t necessarily need a classically trained vocalist like Tarja Turunen (the former vocalist). We welcome all kinds of styles and voices, natural and trained, from rock and pop to classical, and all that you can find in between. You should however be prepared to sing with a lot of dynamics and versatility. From loud and high to very sensitive stuff. You should preferably send us a cd containing 2-3 songs, that you consider to be your best work. If you send an album, would you mark out 2-3 most important songs, please? If you record and send Nightwish songs, then the most important thing is your PERSONAL TOUCH. Photographs are needed as well.

We will look into different applications and all candidates, but doing it this way would save us some time and energy. If you think you have it, just send your stuff to our management, and we´ll be happy to take you onboard.

Here´s the address. Good luck!

ha ha, certainly not ME! uke:

I hope they pick an unknown girl from the Sibelius Academy or just some Finnish lady with a really dynamic voice and personality. For some reason, I really can't see NW with a foreign singer, but then again, if they get one, I'll adjust. Old people are good like that.

Well, I'm really happy to hear that they're working on something again.
I also think its good for the band if they find someone unknown, then everyone is giving the new vocalist a fair chance.

Is this enigma from Halo?

Is this enigma from Halo?

Sorry, nope, though I do have a halo, see:


On topic: Nightwish have set a deadline for vocalist auditioms. All demos received on Jan 15. at latest will count, and will be listened. Late arrivals will be binned.

Everything seems to be progressing fine, and they most obviously will have a vocalist signed and ready by March, when they have the studio booked for recording lead vocs on the upcoming CD.

There is hope we will get to hear the first single and the name of the leading lady revealed by June...

Here's the latest news:
Finnish symphonic metallers NIGHTWISH have posted the following message on their official web site:

"The auditions for the new vocalist have ended, with more than 2,000 demos sent to us (yesterday, Jan. 15, we received 120 demos!). A big thanks to everybody! So please don't send anymore demos, since now we need to concentrate on finishing the album recordings.

"The new vocalist will be announced at the end of May, together with the release of a new single."

Can't wait to see/hear the newcomer.

The end of May? I was hoping they would announce the new vocalist ASAP. I can't wait either!
