CANCELLATION

We are sad to announce that Skew Siskin have been forced to cancel all their shows for this year, due medical treatment Nina C. Alice is undergoing for an infection. Her treatment will take several months and she will not be in the right condition to perform on stage. Nina C. Alice says "Although I am not able to perform at live shows, I will keep writing new material and record songs in our studio. I have a lot of time now to think about all the things that got lost in between all the Rock 'n' Roll craziness."

New line-up announced

SKEW SISKIN Presents New Musicians:

Bass: Henning Menke Drums: Randy Black

In Randys own words:

"I’m looking forward to playing the summer shows with Skew Siskin, So far we've had one rehearsal, atmosphere was good and I've agreed to play the summer dates that the band has booked. I really like their music, we'll see how things go during those summer shows and if time and circumstances permit there might be further cooperation in the future."

Randy Black

PLEASE NOTE:

For the Le Mans show on 16th April,

Andy Schumacher

will step up the plate and fill in for Randy Black!

Randy having prior commitments for that day, recommended Andy who’s a long-time buddy of his. Berlin-based Andy Schumacher has played in various bands, the current one being Toxic Lies. An interview with Andy will be posted soon.

Henning Menke, who’s also playing bass for a band called Ojo Rojo in Berlin, was our number-one choice from the Skew Siskin top-five list of bassists. It's more than cool to have him in the band! We’d already met around several years ago when he was recording with Jingo de Lunch, who reached a high following all over Europe. It was Henning who introduced us to Randy, who also plays drums for Primal Fear & DuskMachine. Randy has been living in Berlin for a few years now, but we’d never met before. When we all got together for our first jamming session in the studio, things were clear: this line-up takes our music to another level.

Skew Siskin would like to thank various people who helped in finding and contacting musicians for us: Steve the Machine (Terrorgruppe), Udo Lindenberg & Bertram Engel & Steffi Stephan, Basti (Knorkator), and very special thanks to Primal Fear for sharing Randy with us.

At the moment, Skew Siskin are writing new material as well as rehearsing for live shows.

More confirmed live shows:
June 18th, Mulhouse / France
Sep 17th, Vaugneray Les Grosses Guitar / France
One previously arranged gig is being rescheduled. The Paris Radio Show was originally planned for 19th of June, and the new date will be announced soon.
