The Waymaker
The Waymaker release debut single and music video
The record label Melodic Passion releases the first, self-titled single and video by The Waymaker - a new band consisting of Christian Liljegren (Narnia, Audiovision, ex-Divinefire), Jani Stefanovic (Zhakiah, ex-Divinefire) and Katja Stefanovic.
The Waymaker are a new melodic metal trio from Finland and Sweden, consisting of long-time band mates Christian Liljegren (Narnia, Audiovision) & Jani Stefanovic (Zhakiah, Solution 45, Miseration) - both from Divinefire, and Jani's wife - Katja Stefanovic (solo artist, ex-Random Eyes).
The band describes their music as melodic metal for the future, and today The Waymaker releases the debut single and video 'The Waymaker' from the forthcoming album with the same title.
"I'm very happy and proud to be back with Jani again," says Christian and continues: "Together with Katja, his wife, we really tried to show the way how to develop melodic metal into the future."
The self-titled album due to be released in September, will have guest appearances by musicians like Narnia's CJ Grimmark (guitar) and Alfred Fridhagen (drums).
The Waymaker's album is mastered by Multi Grammy, Gold & Platinum Award winning Thomas Plec Johansson at Panic Room Studios, Sweden (Soilwork, Nocturnal Rites, Gathering Of Kings, Divinefire, Narnia, Solution 45 and many more) and distributed by Sound Pollution.
The self-titled debut album will be out on 25th of September this year on CD and vinyl (the latter includes a bonus track).
