Jansen performed with the
RED LIMO STRING QUARTET on the Dutch TV program
"Podium" on August 30. Video footage of her appearance can now be viewed below.
Floor Jansen's new project called
REVAMP is currently seeking a drummer, bassist, guitarist and keyboard player.
After the breakup of
AFTER FOREVER,
Jansen decided she wanted to start over and present a new band to the public as soon as possible. To accomplish this, she joined forces with two additional songwriters to first compose, then record an album. A live band is soon to be formed after the CD's completion, which will get her back on stage where she belongs.
The first composer to join this new collaboration was found when
Waldemar Sorychta (
GRIP INC.,
ENEMY OF THE SUN) contacted her to inquire about her current activities and potential future cooperation. Being a fan of
GRIP INC.,
Floor was honored by the possibility of working with
Waldemar.
Sorychta's unique style, combined with his experience as songwriter/producer, made
Jansen's dream come closer to reality.
The second composer was found in
AFTER FOREVER colleague
Joost van den Broek. Asking
Joost to join seemed logical because of his great keyboards and arrangements, and therefore his potentially valuable contribution. Despite his busy schedule, he wanted to join and get started immediately. With him on board, the songwriting team was complete!
The
REVAMP sound will become a unique blend of the personal style listeners will recognize from these musicians.
Songs are currently being written and audio samples will soon be posted on the band's
web site.
REVAMP's debut album is tentatively due in May 2010.
