Norwegian progressive metal band GREEN CARNATION have announced several special acoustic shows in celebration of the remastered edition of “The Acoustic Verses.” The first concert will take place on January 29, 2022, in Vennesla, Norway and the final show happen in the band’s hometown Kristiansand, on March 18, 2022. Find a full list of shows below.
Vocalist Kjetil Nordhus comments: “This is something we have wanted to do for a long time, and after having all live shows cancelled and postponed the last couple of years, we are looking forward to this even more. We do have experience doing acoustic live shows, with the most famous concert being Under The Dam in 2006. These concerts will of course be in a different format, but the band will be working very hard to give the audience a unique experience on this tour. There will be songs never played live before, old songs rearranged and of course an extra focus on the songs from ‘The Acoustic Verses’.”
The 15th-anniversary edition of “The Acoustic Verses” is remastered by Maor Appelbaum, contains three bonus tracks, and has brand new cover artwork by Lukasz Jaszak. This is the first time that “The Acoustic Verses” is released on vinyl. The album will be out on December 3, via Season of Mist. Pre-orders are live in the shop HERE.
