Gotus
GOTUS
New project featuring members of Krokus, Gotthard & Unisonic.
Back in 2019, Armand “Mandy” Meyer and Pat Aeby met in order to discuss the possibility of creating a new musical project together. The idea to play live and revisiting the songs Mandy wrote during his impressive career seemed to be logical. The repertoire will include tracks from Krokus, Unisonic, Gotthard, Cobra, House Of Lords, Katmandü and probably other surprises.
Dino Jelusick (Animal Drive, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Dirty Shirley) will join Gotus on stage as guest singer. When we contacted him, Dino was also very enthusiast to embark in this touring adventure and this is simply how GOTUS was born.
A few phone calls later with Tony Castell (Krokus, Crystal Ball), who was our immediate choice for the bass work, and Alain Guy, a great pianist/keyboard/Hammond player who also worked with Mandy in the past and the base of the band was here. It took only half a day!
Meyer, Aeby and Castell have worked together since many years, including during the successful Krokus era of the Rock The Block, Fire & Gasoline and Hellraiser records. “It feels great to be back on the road with old friends”.
Gotus will be live on stage in 2020 but there is no short term plan for new music to be recorded or release.
