Well hello there!
It’s been about three years since we decided to put MyGrain to rest. Against at least our own expectations, it now seems that it’s time for MyGrain to rise from the deep sleep again! Three years ago we were in a situation where we were facing numerous changes and the future seemed vague for MyGrain. In the same time we realized we had lost the burning for making new songs that we already had started preparing for the fifth album. At the time we didn’t really see the continuation of the band possible, since the passion for the music has always been the thing that kept us going despite all the obstacles. The only option then was to face the facts and call it quits.
The break has been worthwhile. All of us have been making new music in different bands and projects and also concentrated on other areas of our lives that have been on the background for years. It also seems that sometimes you have to step back and take a few breaths to value the precious things you’ve been given in the past. MyGrain has given us a lot during the years – the most important things naturally being music and friendship. Those two have always been the core of MyGrain and those two drove us active again.
At the moment Janne and Teemu are in the studio recording drums for new MyGrain tunes with awesome Juho Räihä (Swallow the Sun, Gloria Morti etc.). The plan is to release three songs for your entertainment, hopefully by the end of the year. We have loose schedules, zero stress and basically no plans whatsoever for the future. We haven’t planned touring or album release dates – we’re doing this solely for the love of music and the joy of each other’s company. The only sure thing is that we’re super excited and that you’re gonna hear from us soon. We are touched and delighted for all the enthusiastic and encouraging messages you guys have sent us the past few months. Love you all!
- Eve, Janne, Jonas, Joni, Teemu & Tommy
