Howdy rock fans - here is some news for you on what we have been up to for the past 5 months and, what you can expect from us in the coming months.
Since our last gig in the south of France in late October we, KORITNI, have been spread over thousands of Kms but still as close as ever- writing songs for our next album and planning 2008. Our French counter-part and guitarist extraodinare Eddy Santacreu is now back in the land down under, after a long and cold Parisian winter, and KORITNI is stronger than ever before.
During this time apart our badass management team has been working feverishly to prepare our 'soon to be released' live cd/dvd pack that we recorded from the last European tour. "Red Live Joint" is a compilation of three gigs - two days at 'Raismesfest' and our (just outside of) Paris gig at Savigny-le-Temple. This mega-pack is available from April 11 but you can preorder now (from
koritni.com) and get some collector freebies!!!
This cd/dvd pack is a 'Thank you' to all our friends and fans that have supported us, both home and overseas, over the past two years. It is a representation of the band and our on-stage persona. We live for playing live and rocking out for you guys on stage so, to hold you guys over till our next album is released, check out "Red Live Joint".
"So", i hear you asking, "when is KORITNI playing again?"....Well , you are in luck. We are playing special showcase Friday 9th May at Candy's Apartment, Kings Cross. This will be our first gig in over 5 months!!! and judging by our last rehearsal it is gonna be a huge night. So get your plane tickets, train tickets or whatever you need to get and come and party with us at Candy's.
This year we are going to be concentrating on our home (away from our home on the road - Paris) Australia. With three Euro tours under our belt over the last two years we are set to give some rock back to the country that spawned us....and now nurtures Eddy too. Over the next year we will be playing hard and fast all around the country, so keep an eye on our web pages to get news of where we will be. As an extra incentive (as if you need on) we will be road-testing our new songs for the next album at these gigs so you can get a sneak peak at the new album live on stage!!!!
So, a big thank you to every one of our European fans for being so awesome over the past two years and for giving us a reason to feel great about getting up on stage despite our ludicrous hang-overs...
We will be back in Europe for another monster tour next year to promote our new album.....so keep a look out. KORITNI will be in there when the sun starts shining and the snow has melted.
But for now......a bientot
