Giannakos And Watson Reform WRETCH, Plan New Album - April 15,
2008
Guitarist Nick Giannakos and vocalist Colin Watson have reformed
WRETCH. The band went on a
brief hiatus last year after parting ways with Watson in the summer.
"I am glad we were able to work everything out so we can move
forward with WRETCH again", says Giannakos. "We have 10 songs
ready to go and can't wait to hear them with Colin".
The band plans on entering the
studio this summer to begin recording a new full-length studio
album.
Returning to join Giannakos and Watson are Shaun Vanek (guitar), Tim
Frederick (bass) and Chris Koshock (drums). WRETCH released
their critically acclaimed "Reborn" debut CD in 2006 and "Make This
Garden Burn" EP in 2007. They were one of the feature
bands at the 2007 "Headbanger's Open Air festival in Germany.
The song, "Make This Garden Burn", was written in honor of the
festival's 10th anniversary.
Giannakos also plays guitar in
BREAKER and will be traveling with them in June to perform at the
Bang Your Head festival in Balingen, Germany.
