It's only three weeks since we've heard the following from Alysia :

"I'm sad to tell you that "A New Dawn" and I are splitting up.

Lately, I have grown as a musician by other directions of music and this caused my vision and interests to drift away from the goals and visions of the band. Therefore I've decided to pursue a career on my own.

It has been a great experience to play with the band, but now I feel it is the best decision to part ways and to follow a new path as a singer.

I would like to thank "A New Dawn" for the fantastic times we've had, and to give the best of wishes for the future!"

Naturally we respect Alysia's decision as we know how much she's struggled with this. We sincerely hope she'll find what she's looking for and wish her all the success she can have in her new career.

After being away from the stages for five long months, we were happy to play again live. Last Saturday, February 18th, we played a try-out show at Plug Unit in Reeuwijk, introducing Elkie Both on vocals and Luc van den Berge on drums. Both Elkie and Luc did a great job and we are happy to have them with us in the band.
During the show, Michiel introduced a great new initiative, called "Stichting A New Dawn" to the audience. We will inform you about Stichting A New Dawn soon, as a press release will be publiced momentarily.
A big 'Thank you' to everybody at Plug Unit and everybody from Evils Desire, for making it a great evening. We look forward to playing again live soon.
In the meantime, we are working hard on the new E.P. "Intermission". Drums have been recorded for three songs now, as are the first vocals!
Stay tuned for pictures of the Plug Unit - show!
