EDEN'S CURSE bassist Paul Logue comments: "Our number one aim for this year was to establish the band on the live circuit. Whilst we've had plenty of offers, it's purely been a case of waiting for the right offer to come along, and that day is finally here! I'm extremely delighted on a personal, as well as a business level, to be sharing a stage with the sensationally talented STRATOVARIUS, and one of my current favourites FIREWIND. Gus G and Thorsten on the same bill — guitar enthusiasts please bring your own bib"!

EDEN'S CURSE has confirmed that English axeman Jay Parmar will join them on the tour as an additional secondary guitarist.

Logue comments: "Unknown to many people, Jay has been in place for well over a year as our secondary guitarist and has learned both albums inside out. He's a great player and guy, and has already struck up a rapport with Thorsten, so it all makes perfect sense! We're delighted he's coming on the road with us."
