NIGHTWISH
Finland’s symphonic imagineers create an immersive wonderland
VALOVA, VANTAA, FINLAND
YOU CAN RELY ON Nightwish to take concept of the livestream not only to the next level, but the highest one possible. For two consecutive nights, the symphonic titans perform two shows acting as a prelude to their Human. :||: Nature. album tour. It comes three years after their last live performance, but it’s no less polished. Before the event gets underway, VIP viewers are introduced to the band’s new session bass player, Jukka Koskinen from Wintersun, who takes on the gargantuan task of filling Marco Hietala’s shoes after his departure from the band in January, and joins his Wintersun bandmate, drummer Kai Hahto, in the Nightwish line-up.
