The Mandalaband, please have a watch at this project of David Rohl. A lot musicians are working on the musically "Indiana Jones and the Search for the holy Ullian Pipes project". Please have a look at their page and get covinced. With art work of the legendary Ed Unitsky.


Troy Donockleymade my album of 2009. Absolute madness. Read more at his page. It's refreshing, classic, Celtic and it drowns you to another world and moods. Truly amazing.

Met him at the Folkwoodfestival in Eindhoven; have a look at his Bad Shepherds performance. Fun...!

Mandalaband rises from the ashes...

Posted on October 29, 2009 at 3:30pm 1 Comment

The Mandalaband made 2 albums in the 70-ies and their "Eye of Wendor" became a cult album in the Symphonic scene and now 30 years later they released their 3th album.
And i can tell you it is strong, symphonic, full beautiful sounds and saoring guitars.
With a great line-upp. Read more at http://www.mostlypink.net, with links to their myspace page etc.
