Festival Music have also signed a brand new band called Bittertown, based in the Netherlands. Formed by Tom Janssen, the driving force behind the band, their music is powerful, emotional, and very catchy! Having listened to their demo over a year ago now, I found myself humming almost every tune for weeks! The debut CD by Bittertown will be a concept album called 'Scenes From The Box', with great guitar and keyboard solos, and powerful, emotive vocals by three vocalists taking on different roles within the compelling concept. The final release date is still to be confirmed, but is likely to be June 2008. As soon a we have a confirmed date, we will of course let you know the full details of the release."-05/01/2008 Happy new year. This is a good year for Bittertown. The CD will be released in april 2008 by Festival Music Record Label. This record label released albums by Magenta, Abel Ganz, Chimpan A, Citizen Cain, Credo, Ezra, Manning and Solstice.
