Hey Everyone,
There has been a lot of speculation out there on Facebook recently about what’s happening with me, CircleIICircle, and everything else so I wanted to give you a full update. It’s true that I have been hired by Trans-Siberian Orchestra (T.S.O.) to sing in the winter tour this year in the U.S. This is something I have been working to be a part of for at least the past three years. I’m overwhelmingly excited to be a part of T.S.O. because it’s more than just a gig. This is my family. It started with Savatage and this year it has come full circle with me being involved in T.S.O., Savatage (Wacken Open Air 2015) and CIIC all in the same year. I couldn’t be happier with the way things have worked out with every band I’m involved with. With this development, I unfortunately had to cancel my acoustic tour of Europe scheduled for dates in November and December 2015. I just wanted to let all of our supporters and friends in Europe know that I am working diligently to reschedule this tour as an energetic CIIC event that will support our new “Reign of Darkness” album which is scheduled to be released on October 16th. We’ve even released the first track from the album, “Victim of the Night”, as an instant download today, so check out any of our CIIC sites for the info (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmvtwXf_...e=youtu.be). We are working harder than ever to reschedule a fantastic CIIC European tour for early 2016 and as many places in the world we can get to after that. As always we absolutely appreciate all of the support coming from every one of our fans, supporters, and promoters throughout Europe for as long as I have been in the business. We love all of our supporters all around the world. You are why we do what we do. If not for all of you, we wouldn’t have a job. Every person I am involved with in the music industry knows that everything we do starts with our friends, fans, and supporters. We definitely appreciate every day that we get to perform our music because it’s a privilege that we have been afforded by YOU. Thank you so much for everything. I’ll be in touch soon with another update.
Peace, Zak"
