At the Ripple, we're always excited to shed some light on new talent. So with that in mind, we're eager to hear what comes from the fertile mind of the new project, Morton Black. Confusion Of Existence, the debut EP by Morton Black, a project by 19 year-old multi-talent Joey Ferwerda from Hoorn, Netherlands, will be released by Deity Down Records around June of 2009.
Morton Black is a project dedicated to creating and recording melodic metal based on the paths that were set by acts such as Ayreon and Avantasia. Next to Joey (vocals, drums, guitars) contributions by guest and session musicians like Madicken De Vries (vocals, ex-Anatar), Jim Van De Kerkhof (drums, Morning, ex-Uplifted), Bas Rensen (guitars, Morning), Michiel Van Veen (guitars, Trisomy) and English shredder Paul Clark (David Cross Band, Curse Of The 9th, Paul Clark Band).
Seems like an ambitious project for a 19 year old, but then, when you consider the vast amount of teenage talent we've already seen here at the Ripple, like Patrick Droney and Amy MacDonald, we already age is only a number. We can't wait to hear what this new talent comes up with.
