» Vers le Nouveau Monde

Frédéric Truong - who did support And Also The Trees on their latest live show in Paris last year just has released his new album: Vers le Nouveau Monde. It features 13 new titles filled with tender, sombre and sunny atmospheres and deals with love, war, hope for peace and with years from another dimension that pass through. Happiness and suffering are intimately linked up forever.
Other musicians on this album are Laurent Esmez, Christophe Maltin among MECANO and many others guest artists...

The photographies are made by Jérôme Sevrette who also is responsible for the album cover of '(Listen for) The Rag and Bone Man'. He contributes to magnify the vision of a cruel and desolated world where Man no more expresses his feelings by his work. Highly recommended.

» Autumn Fire & The Peasant

While AATT is in the studio recording the follow-up to FFTT I like to recommend you a listen to the songs 'Autumn Fire' and 'Tears of Avalon' of Sean Bowley (formerly Eden) from his forthcoming album.
You can find them here.

In addition Vestfalia's Peace who contributed to BTH have now released their exciting "The Peasant" demo free for public download.
Don't miss to get this demo, which should please many AATT fans of the pre-Raphaelite inspired albums...

» After the summer

Frédéric Truong's new CD "Après l'été" has been released this month. This new opus puts together 15 new original songs mingling neo-classical, acoustic, electric and electronical atmospheres. He is once again surrounded with his musician friends Sonia Zannad, Christophe Maltin and Laurent Esmez, the latter signs two electronic pieces of music and some arrangements in certain songs. The theme of the album deals with the intervening seasons, the passage from intense light to winter night as a background. Frédéric Truong writes texts on his life and his inner thoughts but also refers to cinema, love, untruthfulness and death...

Frederic contributed a cover version of one of his favorite songs L'Unica strada for Beyond The Horizon, a different version of that AATT song can be found on his album 'Histoires sans parole'.

» Ramifications & Renaissance

While waiting for any new tunes from 'The Trees you might be interested that 'The Rainfall Years' as well as 'Frederic Truong' will both release a new album in autumn. Both are huge fans of the works from AATT and each had contributed an intriguing song to Beyond The Horizon. Check these out if your haven't yet!
While their albums doesn't much sound like And Also The Trees I think their works may well appeal to some AATT fans.

The new album from 'The Rainfall Years' is called Ramifications and I'm very pleased being able to present you the opportunity for exclusive pre-release downloads of the songs Dwindle and Each Hidden Movement.
You can obtain the album and listen to excerpts all songs at CD Baby.

Frederic Truongs' new album will be called Renaissance In memoriam. You can view the video clip of Renaissance or of Huit ans d'absence and Marcher from the live premiere to get some impressions of his very recommendable new work.
