AGUA DE ANNIQUE, the Dutch band led by ex-The Gathering vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen, has set "In Your Room" as the title of its new album, tentatively due this fall. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "I Want", "Home Again", "Physical", "Hey Okay!" and "I Suppose".

Anneke says, "Urban Dance Squad drummer Michel Schoots helped me organizing all of my ideas (I've seen an awful lot of Urban Dance Squad shows in the '90s; absolutely loved them). I feel that I've written some catchy/addictive tunes and I can't wait to share them with you."

Upcoming AGUA DE ANNIQUE shows:
Nov. 12 - Oosterpoort - Groningen NL
Nov. 13 - Doornroosje - Nijmegen NL
Nov. 14 - Melkweg - Amsterdam NL
Nov. 15 - Effenaar - Eindhoven NL

Anneke staged two unique shows in February — at the Melkweg in Amsterdam, Holland (Feb. 12) and at the Oosterpoort in Groningen (Feb. 13). At these intimate performances, Anneke shed some light on her compositions through personal stories. Anneke was also joined on stage by Sharon den Adel (Within  Temptation), Niels Geusebroek (Silkstone) and singer-songwriter Marike Jager. These artists also perform on Anneke's latest acoustic album, "Pure Air".

As well as acoustic versions of songs from her solo debut, "Air", Anneke's "Pure Air" album contains some great collaborations. Besides Sharon den Adel, Niels Geusebroek and Marike Jager, Anneke is joined by Danny Cavanagh (Anathema), John Wetton (King Crimson, Asia) and Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon.

Recently the band  played a handful of concerts in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Mexico in early March. Part one of a video documentary featuring highlights from the tour can be viewed on youtube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzu_3alxp84
