NIGHTWISH Singer Anette Olzon To Work With JANET JACKSON / CELINE DION / MADONNA Songwriter On New Solo Album



NIGHTWISH singer Anette Olzon has issued the following update:

"The person I met yesterday, (producer/songwriter Anders Bagge) is a very famous and incredibly talented songwriter. He has done so many hit songs and has been working with MADONNA, CELINE DION, JANET JACKSON, JESSICA SIMPSON and many many more. He is also one of the jury members in Swedish Idols and a show called Made in Sweden.

He is a true CANNIBAL CORPSE lover and rock lover. At the moment he has done some albums and one of the bands he is doing at the moment are called APOLLO DRIVE. I really liked the songs he played and the first single, 'Time', is a bit heavier and I like it! Here it is: myspace.com/apollodrive.

Me and Petri (Annette's manager Petri H. Lundén) came to his big house and had a meeting with him and his two co-writer team. It was a really fun and crazy moment. Anders is a really funny guy and I laughed all the time.

We were there to talk about a collaboration to make songs for a solo album for me, now when I have a break from Nightwish. I am looking forward to do songs now and I believe this will be great."

Stay tuned for further updates.

Olzon previously issued the following update:

"The two albums with my former band ALYSON AVENUE has been re-released again. Fans all over the world has asked us where they could buy Presence of Mind and Omega. The original print of these two albums has been sold out for quite some time now but we are now extremly happy to announce that Alyson Avenue has teamed up with Yesterrock to re-release Alyson Avenues two first albums.



The re-release Presence Of Mind compilation is a copy of the initial album released in 2000. The new Omega compilation is a totally reworked album where a lot of tracks has been re-recorded to better be in line with how the band wants the album to sound like compared to the original 2004 release of Omega. The new Omega compilation also has added material in the form of 5 demo songs that did not make it in to the original release for different reasons."
