NEW RADIO JINGLE FOR CBS

Jayce will record a Radio Jingle for CBS radio show "Sara & No Name Morning Show" in Northern California.
After the jingle is aired in San Francisco, it will be posted on the internet for free download so stay tuned! This will be the second jingle for CBS that Jayce does.

Jayce has just composed and written it and the line-up will be:

Jayce Landberg : Electric guitars
Göran Edman : Vocals
Carl Manstrand : Bass
James Humphrey : Drums

SIGNUM REGIS

The project Signum Regis started its existence in summer 2007, when there were some demos done and Göran confirmed, that he would do the vocal lines. It was more or less a solo project by Ronald König (bass player in the slovakian band Vindex), where he composed all the music. Now it is getting a bit further from a solo project, because there is a song written by the guitarist and Göran did some brand new vocal lines.
The music can be described as a mixture of heavy metal, hard rock with some neoclassical elements. There can also be heard some influences of german metal bands like Helloween or Gamma Ray.
The album has its own sound and it is not a carbon copy of records that Göran did with Yngwie in the 90s. It will be the heaviest stuff Göran ever did!

There will be 11 songs + 1 bonus for Japan.

Currently Ronald is negotiating the last details with the Japanese label Avalon/Marquee. The release of this album for other regions is still open.

Göran Edman : vocals
Ronnie König : bass
Filip Koluš : guitar
Ado Kaláber : guitar
Jano Tupý : keyboards
Ludek Struhar : drums

CASTLE ROYALE

Castle Royale is a newly founded modern hard rock/metal band with highly talented and experienced musicians. The band was formed by songwriter and guitarist Magnus Lindbloom and the goal was clear:
"After playing in different band constellations, I finally developed my own musical fingerprint. What I wanted to do was to create a sound that combined high-energy with nuanced harmonies. To do this, I joined forces with other creative musicians with the same goal."
The singer of the group, Göran Edman, is highly respected for his talent and has been the lead singer for Yngwie Malmsteen and John Norum.
According to Lindbloom: "Actually, Göran is one of my favourite singers. His voice is one of a kind."
The bass player of the band, Johan Niemann, is steady as a rock while also being a technical player. He's an experienced musician who also plays in the great metal band Therion.
The guitarist of the band, Magnus Lindbloom, critically acclaimed by none other than Greg Howe for his technique and musical vocabulary, has been touring with the outstanding fusion drummer Morgan Ĺgren and his brother Jimmy Ĺgren.

JAYCE LANDBERG's NEW ALBUM

The new album entitled "Break The Spell" is now completed and the release date in Japan is set for March 26th by Japanese label Marquee Inc.

Here's a little comment from Jayce about the record:
"I wrote most of the songs during my stay in San Francisco only a few weeks before the recording sessions in Sacramento. The record company granted us very little time to record because of various deadlines, so the album's got a special energy to it. Everybody in the band gave a 100% of themselves and I am very pleased with Göran's vocal performance and the way the record turned out. There is a contrast between each song with everything from guitar-based double bass-drum tunes to more bluesy and Bowie influenced tunes. A little something for everybody's taste I think. The album will be out in Japan and Asia on March 26 but can be preordered on Amazon Japan. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I enjoyed doing it!"

Track listing:

01. Break The Spell
02. Flirting With Your Wesson
03. Left On A Dream
04. Land Of The Dark
05. Burning Bridges
06. Dawn
07. Black Magic
08. New Generation
09. Tell Me Why
10. Kusamura
11. Marilyn (Japan bonus track)
12. Lost Without You (Japan bonus track)
13. Caprice No 25 (Japan bonus track)
