The production started in December 2011 involving several studios (Finnvox Studios/Finland, Sky Studio/Germany, Artifact Studio/Italy) and finished in spring 2014.

Here is the track list of the songs of the new album: Everybody Here / Blue Diamond / Angel Eyes / Tears Of Sebastienne / Luna (My Love) / Dance Of Fire And Rain / Mountain Girl / Alone (Instrumental) / Girlfriend / Angel Eyes (Piano Version) / Dance Of Fire And Rain (Extended Version, Bonus Track). “Dance Of Fire And Rain” will be promoted and distributed worldwide by the German label “7Hard”
