LAST CALL!
Now are the last moments to apply for the female lead singer position of the internationally acclaimed melodic metal band TACERE.

It’s over a month ago that we announced the singer position open to apply for anyone, and we’ve received a stunning amount of applications from people around the world. The level of the applicants has been high, and now we’ve gone through most of them and will move on to meet some of the best candidates to eventually make some sort of decisions about the matter.

If you still haven’t applied for the position but are interested in becoming a part of TACERE, send e-mail with personal info, recent pictures and sound samples immediately (before the end of June/July) to tacereneedsyou (at) gmail.com as we will make the decision about the new singer very soon.




05.05.2008

We are is still looking for a new singer. We have already received a huge amount of applications and we have finally started looking through them. There are already several potential singers, but the application process is still open for anyone, and by sending e-mail to taceresinger (at) gmail.com you will receive more information about how to apply for the position.

The band is looking for a FEMALE singer who has an excellent voice and technique, experience in performing, rock attitude, a suitable appearance, willingness to commit to the project as well as a desire for success. The new singer will naturally also get to record her performance straight away to the upcoming new TACERE album that the band is starting to record soon.




22.04.2008

Helena Haaparanta is no longer a member of Tacere. She was an excellent vocalist and performer so this is of course very unfortunate. But the fact is that the ways of Tacere and Helena departed only because of personal reasons and this has nothing to do with the band or its music, or Helena’s skills. As far as we know Helena always loved Tacere’s music and this was a very tough decision for her - one that just had to be done. We wish her all the best with her future musical endeavours.

Because of Helena’s departure TACERE is now looking for a new female singer to fill the position left open by Helena. We are looking for a FEMALE singer who has an excellent voice and technique, experience in performing, rock attitude, a suitable appearance, willingness to commit to the project as well as a desire for success. The application process is open for anyone (and singers of every style are welcome to apply). By sending e-mail to taceresinger(at)gmail.com you will receive more information about how to apply for the position.

Despite of the vocalist situation we will start the recordings of our new (2nd) album at the end of May this year at Astia-Studio, Lappeenranta, Finland. The recording sessions will continue until late in the autumn and take part in several different locations. The album will be produced by the band’s frontman Karri Knuuttila together with producer guru Anssi Kippo who is known for his groundbreaking work with bands such as Children of Bodom. The album will feature massive orchestrations and 12 new great songs.

THIS IS THE REBIRTH OF TACERE

Tacere has been reborn, and to celebrate this there are new songs in both the Tacere myspace profile and the Tacere mikseri profile for you all to listen and to download! These are demo versions of new Tacere songs that will appear on the next Tacere album (whenever it will be produced).

So what is this rebirth of Tacere all about?

1. Tacere has broken up with their Finnish record label Suomen Musiikki Oy/SM-Records because of a lack of mutual interests and enthusiasm to take the band to a further level. And so Tacere is now an unsigned band, and looking for a new main label (some of the international contracts are still valid if the band wishes so).

2. The live line-up and atmosphere of Tacere has changed. Tacere now has a 5 member live line-up and the debut performance of this line-up will be on the next gig (5th of March 2008)

3. Tacere has a plethora of new superb songs that have a bit different style than the songs of the first album. Debut live performances for these new songs will also be on the next gig (5th of March 2008)

Rock on!
-K-




12.02.2008

Tacere is currently working on new songs and future plans... So the gig at On The Rocks (5th March 2008) is most probably the only Tacere gig for the spring of 2008. This is

- The only Tacere gig of Spring 2008

Suomalaisille/For Finnish people:

Kannattaa kääntää sunnuntaina 22.4. telkkari Music TV:lle, koska Tacere on Headbangers ball ohjelmassa jauhamassa pa** Kotipellon kanssa. Pääsette todistamaan poikkeuksellisen hienoa ja ala(pää)tasoista Headbangers Ball ohjelmaa jossa mm. Timo esittelee erään videon eirräin mielenkiintoisin metodein ja muuta normaalista ohjelmasta mahdollisesti melko poikkeavaa. Lisäksi ohjelman lopussa bravuurina Helenan, mun ja Timon kolmiääninen hevifalsettikiljunta!

Sitä se Tacere teettää ;)
