FROM DYNFARI:
Three days ago we were informed that Tibor, Negură Bunget's guitarist, cannot make it to their North American tour with Dynfari, and all of Grimegod's
shows (in the US at least) have been cancelled due to unforeseen
problems with his US visa. To prevent the whole tour from being
cancelled, I volunteered to step in on guitar for Negură Bunget and
taking care of some vocals as well. I have spent the whole weekend
learning their set list and I can promise you the tour is on. From what I
have learned, North America will definitely be witnessing something
spectacular in this collaboration of Dynfari and Negură Bunget,
something that is very uncertain whether will ever happen again.
We are leaving for USA tomorrow and the first show is in Boston the next day. See you there!

FROM NEGURA BUNGET:
= Negura Bunget US tour challenges and opportunities =
We always try
to see the challenges that emerge in front of us as opportunities to
evolve and step into new territories. With this in mind we are pleased
to announce we will fulfill the whole US tour that starts next week, and
we prepared some cool surprises also, trying to overcome the recent
difficulties we have been challenged with. After months of preparation,
tons of paperwork and huge financial investments, our singer Tibor Kati
was denied the US visa on Friday. Hard as I may be, we decided to move
along with everything having drummer Gabriel Mafa / Negru and bass
player Ovidiu Corodan taking partly charge of vocal duties, all with the
help of fellow tour partners Dynfari stepping up as well. Because it
will likely take us a long time to adventure back to US, don’t miss the
chance to see us now! Grimegod are unfortunately forced to step down
from the US tour under the new circumstances, so everything goes with
Negura Bunget and Dynfari.
We decided to spice up a bit our playlist
for the tour, adding some rarely played tracks, both old and new ones,
with a wide array of traditional instruments use. We are also bringing a
complete stage set-up with us on all dates of the tour, from backline
to digital mixer, mics, stands and cables… all aiming to offer a
unifying experience for the audience, regardless of the particular
technical rider of the venues. This tour will definitely be one to
remember!
