AURI - release first album trailer!

AURI have unveiled their first album trailer today, in which the trio talks about the origins of the band and how it came alive.
Echoes of another world resound from the depths of the legendary rabbit hole. Music diffused with moments of silence and escapist dream sequences, freed from time and earthly presence. AURI begun its life with three people, united through their shared need to hear a kind of music which can‘t be described by words alone. A magical kind of sound to be heard whilst falling down Alice's rabbit hole. The Finnish singer Johanna Kurkela lent her unique voice, while Troy Donockley and Tuomas Holopainen (both NIGHTWISH) cast their spells with various other instruments. Using selected guest musicians and friends, their self-titled debut album finally took its ultimate form under the direction of sound engineer Tim Oliver, all within the pastoral splendor of 'Real World' studios in Southern England. The album will be out on March, 23 and available as digipak CD, 2LP gatefold Vinyl, a limited Earbook and digital. Before the album release, the band will take us on a journey throughout the band's history, delving deep into the magic of AURI. Today they unveil the first album trailer, in which the trio talks about the origins of the band and how it came alive.

It was supposed to happen that we do music together at some point. It took seven years - but it happened!" says Tuomas Holopainen. He continues: "Two years ago, whenever we were discussing this project, we just called it 'the project'. But now it becomes something completely different - I think the term 'project' doesn't do it any justice. It's an actual band, an actual entity, with hopefully and very likely a long future!" The band recently released the official music video to 'Night 13', which you can watch here: https://youtu.be/fYVmmWNskjs Order the digital single here: http://nblast.de/AURINight13 Or pre-order the album here: http://nblast.de/AURIAuri
