Yes, it's Anneke van Giersbergen. This is a project by her and Arjen Lucassen. Just one studio album in 2015 called The Diary. The musicians are a lot of the people that played with Ayreon as well. The band Anneke became known for is The Gathering ('94-'07)
the backing singer you see here is Marcela Bovio, she is Arjens go to singer for every project, also she is one of the five singers in Mark Jansen (Epica) second band MaYaN (symphonic death metal) with Merel (this tiny guitar girl here) Marcela also lately revived old Arjens band Stream of Passion after some 6y pause
Hi y’all. I am glad you loved it. A lot of people have explained so much already. They are Dutch and not from Finland. Technically the formed in 2015 and only made one Album, The Dairy, it’s another project from Arjen Lucassen that’s why you have seen all the band members before in Ayreon, except for the girl with the guitar Merel Bechthold , who replaced Arjen Lucassen, on the live performances. With the studio recordings the band has a lot more members. Arjen and Anneke dit a tour in Poland, just the two of them, The Gentle Storm, acoustic version, only them both singing with both playing an acoustic guitar. They also played music from the Gathering, Anneke’s first real band , which eventually you will get around to, Anneke is very popular in the music industry and collaborated with many great musicians one of them being Devin Townsend.
Yes our mother of metal from the Netherlands. This musicians were in a music/band/project years ago, from Arjan Lucassen, and this people are all from the Netherlands. Anneke has her own band, "VUUR". And of course our Matriarch from the Metal Music of the Netherlands Anneke van Giersbergen
🇫🇮❤ Another project by Arjen Anthony Lucassen (Ayreon, Star One etc.) together with one of the best female metal vocalists of all time, Anneke van Giersbergen, with another great singer Marcela Bovio supporting.. P.S. Anneke was the one who inspired the 16-yesr-old Floor Jansen to start singing.
Love to see you both checking out Anneke. This woman was the singer who inspire Floor to sing metal. Good luck with the gig. No worries Tomikaze. Just do your best and keep it fun. They were not brothers, but all of them have been part of the Ayreon projects. All great musicians. The Keyboardist is Joost van den Broek, who played in Floor's first band After Forever. You two rock. Hopefully you get the gig. keep working it. You can do it. Finland is a large country covered with forests and lakes and fairly small population. 5.5 million people. Same population as my home state , Minnesota. I don't think you need a green screen. Spend you $$$ on stuff you need like equipment and recording gear.
Great song. These are some of the musicians. Lead vocals Anneke van Giersbergen; drums, Ed Warby (of course); backup singer, Marcela Bovio; keyboards, Joost (of course); guitar, Merel Bechtold (Delain); bass, Johan van Stratum (Stream of Passion). Not sure about the other two guitarists. Great reaction, stay safe, God Bless, keep rocking.
Anneke Rocks. I love her voice and personality. Floor , Anneke, Sharon from Within Temptation and Marcela Bovio are all from The Netherlands. Marcela and Anneke sang with Floor on valley of the Queens and she's the other singer in this video. Marcela is originally from Mexico. You should react to Anneke on Beste Zangers
The first few times I heard this song the mesmerizing theme kept me awake at nights. I could not get it out of my head. It is that brilliant. Arjen never writes less then epic music. The gentle storm is a fantastic project that should get much more attention from the reactors family. Thanks guys!!!
Anneke van Giersbergen, Dutch Godmother of Metal as spirit and inspiration for Sharon Den Adel (Within Temptation), Manda Ophuis (Nemesea), Charlotte Wessels (former Delain), Marjan Welman (Autumn), Floor and her sister Irene Jansen (lot of metal bands), Dianne van Giersbergen (Ex-Libris, former Xandria), Simone Simons (Epica), Valerie de Kempe (Worlds Beyond), Zora Cock (Blackbriar), Maggy Luyten (Ayreon, MayaN), and other great female fronted power singers. For your next video's I would highly recommend..

This is not a Finnish group. This is a Dutch group with a Dutch singer, just like Epica!

Hi Alan, Johan van Stratum is the bass player for Blind Guardian since 2021. In case you didn’t know that.
@@frank1963 No, I didn't realize that. Thanks!
The female guitarist (Merel?) on the left was in MaYaN with Marcela at one time.
@@randyboyles Merel Bechthold
@@randyboyles Yes, I recall seeing that. She was in another band prior to that, but the name escapes me.
Wow great song!
These two plus Floor were who you saw in "Valley of the Queens". ua-cam.com/video/4X4jNBrFEn0/v-deo.html is a duet with Marco and Delain.
