Who Gives Kudos:


Thursday, December 11, 2008 

Spinefarm Records (www.spinefarm.fi) adds to the roster Elias Viljanen, who in addition to his solo work, is known as the guitarist Sonata Arctica! So far Viljanen has put out two solo albums: "Taking The Lead" in 2002 and "The Leadstar" in 2005. A third album, yet to be titled, will be released later this year! The album will feature guest vocalists Marco Hietala (Nightwish, Tarot) and Tony Kakko (Sonata Arctica). Also contributing will be Jari Kainulainen (Evergrey, ex-Stratovarius), Mikko Siren (Apocalyptica) and Henrik Klingenberg (Sonata Arctica).

Viljanen joined Sonata Arctica in the fall of 2007. The band has kept
Viljanen busy, as they spent most of last year on the road in North and
South America and Europe.
