Former TNT Singer TONY HARNELL Looks Back On 2010
January 8, 2011Former TNT and current TONY HARNELL & THE MERCURY TRAINvocalist Tony Harnell has issued the following update:
"2010 was definitely better than 2009 by a long shot! I continued healing from my mother's passing and my own health scare and subsequent surgery in spring 2009. It knocked me down for a bit and I haven't spoken about it much 'till a couple of months ago but all is good now.
"It feels great that we actually got an album released, did some shows in New York, Norway, Spain and Florida and I'm almost back to my old self.
"My bands both in New York and in Sweden really helped me through some tough times. I love them all very much.
"2011 should be interesting. We are working on new material. We're not sure if we'll release a full album or a few songs at a time. We'll have to see how things go.
"I hope to do a lot more shows this year, either solo or with THE MERCURY TRAIN or maybe in some other unforeseen situation, such as last year's Queen Symphonic Rhapsody, which was a huge success and a lot of fun.
"I'll be announcing a New York show soon and hopefully more good things to come."
"Northern Lights", the debut video from Harnell's new project, TONY HARNELL & THE MERCURY TRAIN, can be viewed below. The track comes off the group's debut album, "Round Trip", which was released in Europe on July 2, 2010 and in the USA on July 27, 2010 via Frontiers Records.
"Round Trip" is a very special record: a stripped down, reinvented retrospective of Tony Harnell's past classics originally recorded with his previous bands TNT, WESTWORLD and STARBREAKER, with one brand new song, "Anywhere But Here", recorded exclusively for this release.
