Textures line-up weer compleet met nieuwe 'keyboardanist'
Vol trots kondigt Textures aan dat keyboard en sample-maestro Uri Dijk aan de line-up is toegevoegd. Deze zomer heeft Uri de band bijgestaan tijdens het oefenen en bij de live shows, waarbij er een sterke persoonlijke en muzikale connectie tussen de band en Uri aanwezig was. Hierdoor heeft de band besloten Uri te vragen om een fulltime member te worden. Uri gaf hierop zijn ja woord.
Uri's commentaar: “First of all I am honored to have been asked to join TEXTURES. This is an opportunity that doesn’t come along every day, and let’s be honest, how could I refuse. Getting to know the guys in the past few weeks has shown me that the spirit of TEXTURES is as much alive as ever and that this is just an amazing group of friends who have worked very hard to bring mind-blowing music to the world. I feel privileged to be able to become a part of this and I am happy the band is now complete again. I hope I can bring as much atmosphere and musicality to the band and its music as Richard did. We are back in business!”
Commentaar vanuit de band: “To see Richard leave shortly after the departure of Eric, was quite a blow for us. Richard was a part of the band from the beginning, so it would feel pretty weird to fit a new person in that role. But after Uri joined us to help us out for the live shows it felt really good to have a well skilled person on keys again. It was such a good experience with Uri that we couldn’t see ourselves moving on without him. Uri is more than a well skilled synth-maestro and besides an amazing guy to be around. We are very glad that Uri accepted the position and we are working very hard to write new material. We are working on taking it to the next level, so be ready!!”
