Tarja Turunen Adds Dates To The Shadow Shows Tour

(Metal Hammer) Former Nightwish singer Tarja Turunen has added two UK dates to her The Shadow Shows tour in support of her recent rock outing The Shadow Self, which launched in August via earMusic.

She'll play Manchester's Academy 2 on March 9 and London's Koko on March 10, 2017, and she recently told Metal Hammer that despite the shock of her departure from the band 10 years ago, she has no regrets.

She said: "Everything is different nowadays. I have a career, I have my audience, and a life as an artist. I can also be free. It's unbelievable to be able to choose things, or choose how to do things, and with whom to work. That freedom is something I would never give away." See the dates here.
