Instrumentals all recorded for Gatekeepers!

Posted by Cherelle-Renee on Sunday, February 9, 2014, In : Guest Artists 
I get to start yet another post with "I am pleased to announce..."
Or maybe completely thrilled and still not quite able to believe it's real would be a better way to put it.
If you read the title, you probably know why, but if you clicked on it, you probably wanted more details. So I'll humor you. Gladly.
Upon checking my Facebook account yesterday at evening, I came across a message delivering the long-awaited news that the final guitar part had been uploaded for me to download! I have waited ...

Bassist Reverse Flow Performs on The Suicidal Immortal

Posted by Cherelle on Friday, December 6, 2013, In : Guest Artists 
I am pleased to announce that I have received bass tracks for a track which will also feature LadyLau, Sid Barnhoorn, and Helge Kautz.
The mysterious bassist is my college friend and former Prog-nosys bandmate Eric Goerdt, now known as Reverse Flow. I met Eric while I was a back-up singer with the Fargo-Moorhead, North Dakota band Prog-nosys. When the band's usual bassist was unable to play an important show, Eric stepped in and learned all of the band's material in about 2 weeks. And we playe...

Piano recorded!

Posted by Cheryl R. on Friday, June 29, 2012, In : Guest Artists 
I am pleased to announce that about 2 weeks ago, 3 of the 4 remaining piano tracks for the Gatekeepers album were recorded!

My good friend, singer-songwriter and pianist Jilly Comrie, and I went to the studio to record the remaining piano parts. We got three of the four of them done, but due to a technical error, had to save the fourth for later. But let me tell you, I think Jilly did a great job!

Jilly and I met in 2009 in Quito, Ecuador. We soon discovered a mutual love of music, and in 2011,...

It's a Songweaver!

Posted by Cheryl R. on Sunday, July 4, 2010, In : Guest Artists 

I have had the priviledge of bringing yet another talented performer into the studio, and that would be the passionate, sexy, earthy, and sensual voice of Ecuadorian blues/jazz singer Ivonneth Rosero!  Ivonneth sings the role of the mysterious, moody goddess of music, sex, creativity and fertility: The Songweaver.

I got to know Ivonneth during my time with Camaleon Jazz Combo.  I was impressed with her unique improvisational style and incredible vocal creativity.  I cannot remember if she was ...

And the mystery singer is...Oganalp Canatan of Dreamtone!

Posted by Cheryl R. on Wednesday, April 7, 2010, In : Guest Artists 
I can't believe none of you guessed him!  I guess you just weren't used to hearing him sing in Turkish!

Today, I finally get to reveal to you that the mysterious, haunting, otherworldly vocals you heard in the sample are provided by none other than Dreamtone's Oganalp Canatan.

Unlike many of you, I had never heard of Oganalp or his band Dreamtone before he appeared on Korsair's song Prototype X.  I was impressed by the professional quality of Oganalp's voice, so I began messaging him on myspace...

Mystery Vocalist 6

Posted by Cheryl R. on Wednesday, March 24, 2010, In : Guest Artists 
I thought it was about time for another vocalist guessing contest, so head over to the music page, have a listen, and send me your guesses at legendsghost@gmail.com.

As always, here are the clues:

1. The vocalist is singing in his native language.  But I will not tell you what language that is.  It would make it too easy!

2. His band has a record deal with an independent label.

3. He was born the same year as I was.

4. He will be touring Europe soon with one of his bands.

And, as usual, the person ...

Belgian Guitarist Kristof Elst performs on Legend's Ghost

Posted by Cheryl R. on Saturday, March 6, 2010, In : Guest Artists 
There is a new song up, and a new guest artist to announce!  That guest artist would be Kristof Elst of the project Dragons and Lilies, formerly of Transentience. 

Although I have never met Kristof personally, I became acquainted with his musical style through his former Transentience bandmate (and Legend's Ghost guest soloist) Joop de Rooij.  When he added me on facebook in late 2009 and I needed another guitarist, I was very happy to ask him to play some songs on Legend's Ghost.

You can now ...

Jazz/Blues Bassist Sergey Proshunin to play on Legend's Ghost album

Posted by Cheryl R. on Tuesday, January 12, 2010, In : Guest Artists 
Today, I get to announce another very talented Legend's Ghost artist: Russian jazz/blues bassist Sergey Proshunin.

In November 2008, I went to a Camaleon Jazz Combo concert. There was this Russian guy onstage playing these crazy bass solos and looking like he was having the time of his life. I thought to myself, "I don't care if he is from a completely different musical background from me, and I don't care if he has never even heard of my style of music.  I've got to have him on my album." Unf...

Mystery Singer 5: The Mother

Posted by Cheryl R. on Wednesday, December 9, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
And it's now time for another guessing game!  Go to the music page and listen to Mystery Singer 5 and see if you can guess her identity!  As usual, if you are a bandmate, housemate, or romantic partner of this singer, you may not attempt to guess her identity.  (that also goes for other people who are "in the know" for some other reason)

But the rest of you can send your guesses to legendsghost@gmail.com.

A few clues about her:

- She recently left her former band to start an exciting new projec...

Joris "Sygmoral" Debonnet and Louise Gracielle to sing on Legend's Ghost

Posted by Cheryl R. on Sunday, October 11, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
No one was able to correctly guess either of the mystery singers, so I am now announcing them. 

Mystery singer # 3 is none other than Joris Debonnet, the keyboardist and backing vocalist of the recently-signed band Gwyllion.  Joris and I sang together in the 2007 lineup of Ayreonotes, an Arjen Lucassen tribute band which played at the Ayreon fanmeet.  His deep, booming voice immediately caught my attention, and when I began working on Gatekeepers, I knew he would be perfect for the character ...

Mystery Singer 4: The Maiden

Posted by Cheryl R. on Saturday, October 3, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
The Maiden has recorded!  And I have posted a little preview so you can hear her.  But just like with the other singers, I will give you a chance to guess who she is.  The sample is on the music page.

And, just like with the other contests, if you are the first to correctly guess her, you get a free signed copy of Gatekeepers when it is released.  Bandmates, family members, and significant others of the singer and other people who have access to unreleased LG information are not permitted to p...

Mystery vocalist #3: The Stranger

Posted by Cheryl R. on Tuesday, September 29, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
And it's another guessing contest!  Another vocalist has recorded.  His character is called "The Stranger", which is quite appropriate right now, seeing as it is up to you to figure out who he might be.  Take a listen on the music page.

A few hints:
This singer's band recently got a record deal.
He is perhaps better known as an instrumentalist.
He and I have worked together before.

And remember, if you are the first to guess correctly, you will get a free signed copy of Gatekeepers, which is the a...

LadyLau to appear on Legend's Ghost

Posted by Cheryl R. on Sunday, June 28, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
The time has come to introduce a Legend's Ghost Lady!  (You didn't really think this was a guys only game, did you, despite what the guest artist page was starting to look like?)

I was first introduced to LadyLau's music when she appeared on Elemental Journey in 2006 and later released her first album, EP1. I was immediately impressed by her lyrical yet powerful voice, and even though the female roles on The Suicidal Immortal had all been filled, I decided to create another character, the Gate...

Siddhartha Barnhoorn to appear on Legend's Ghost album

Posted by Cheryl R. on Saturday, May 23, 2009, In : Guest Artists 
I am pleased to announce the appearance of Dutch film composer Siddhartha Barnhoorn on the Legend's Ghost album The Suicidal Immortal. Sid recently recorded guitar tracks for the upcoming Legend's Ghost release, "Overture".  These will be posted as soon as I properly edit the song.

I met Sid on the Ayreon forum. I was immediately interested in his film scores, and soon we were talking on msn. During one of our conversations, I mentioned Legend's Ghost and he asked if he could be a part of it....
