You might remember the Roadrunner Records band and the powerful vocals of Tarja (pronounced Tai-Yah), the Finnish front woman of the multi platinum Nightwish. Tarja is releasing her first solo project here in the states called My Winter Storm. Nightwish has gone platinum numerous times and Tarja is bringing many of those core fans with her on this project.

I Walk Alone is the first single taken from her album, My Winter Storm in stores across the US on February 26th 2007. I Walk Alone (inspired by Mozart’s celebrated ‘Requiem’), is already receiving an enthusiastic response from fans and media alike, with the accompanying video – directed by Joern Heitmann – due to be unveiled shortly. Meanwhile, the final touches are being put to the album itself: a genuine labour of love overseen by Daniel Presley, producer of Faith No More, Jewel and The Breeders (and relative of The King!), and featuring the talents of a truly stellar line-up of musicians. That’s Doug Wimbish on bass (Living Colour, Annie Lennox, Joe Satriani, Jeff Beck, Madonna, Rolling Stones), Alex Scholpp on electric & acoustic guitars (Farmer Boys) and Earl Harvin on drums (Seal, Pet Shop Boys, Air), a player personally selected by Tarja after she saw him stealing the show at a Seal concert. Keyboards & programming, meanwhile, are provided by Torsten Stenzel, whose previous credits include Nelly Furtado, Moby, Tina Turner, Vanessa Mae and more.
