Comme annoncé il y a quelques temps l'ex Viper, Angra et Shaaman se décide finalement officiellement pour une carrière solo. Cette fois plus d'infos sont dispos sur son tout nouveau site

On peut aussi y entendre un nouveau morceau (enfin, si Flash Player est de bonne humeur...), à paraître sur son album mi-2007.
Explications :
Andre Matos is beginning life as he knows it anew.
After much reflection and many invitations for presentations all over the planet, he’s decided to walk the path to a solo career.
At the recent experience at the Live´n´Louder 2006 festival, the ‘best of Andre Matos’, from a brand new unreleased song to his biggest hits, was presented during a 45 minute long non-stop performance in front of thousands of people. Andre Matos made his debut as a singer while he was still a teenager, formed four bands, became an icon in several countries and dedicates himself entirely to the strong relationship established with his audience at a much more mature and conscientious stage of his music. Everything became quite clear at the surprise appearance at the festival, being his first solo concert ever.
In his own words: “It was incredible to play at that festival. Throughout my career I’ve received many offers for work based on my own name, but everything always happens just at the right time. Now, finally, I have the opportunity to make the most out of all that is me, all my history – besides, I feel ready to create brand new things within the style I’ve embraced.”
For that task he’s counting on excellent musicians: “When the idea took form, I wished to invite the musicians I admire the most and I was sure that we would form a great team. The band’s spirit is fundamental. I’m very proud and especially honoured to have them at my side in this special moment. Without a doubt, we’re already doing a great job!”
The musicians are the well-known Luis Mariutti (bass), Hugo Mariutti (guitar) and Fabio Ribeiro (keyboards), in addition to André Hernandes – with whom Andre Matos had already played in the beginning of the 90´s and who is considered to be one of the biggest guitar names in Brazil – and Rafael Rosa, a prodigious drummer who’s also lived through the late 90´s music scene and who’s proven himself as a great authority in the style.
At this moment, Andre Matos is working on the pre-production of his album, with its worldwide release projected for the first half of 2007.
And for those who didn’t have the opportunity to check out Andre’s presentation at the festival, no need to worry: the debut tour is expected to begin very soon.
There are good things in store for all of the fans. Just wait!
Les zicos sont quasi tous des ex-Angra et Shaaman. Donc ça ressemble fort à de "la rupture tranquille", pour reprendre un slogan cher à M. Nicolas S. de Neuilly sur Seine
Et accessoirement, c'est mon 1er topic sur le forum
