Last wednesday was my last day as lead singer from Zabatista. I’m no longer part of the band. It has nothing to do with the other guys in the band, they are all really nice guys which are all very talented. As Zabatista we have played together for 5 to 6 years which is a pretty long time. Before Zabatista we have played in the band Vurio for a couple of years.
We’ve had lots of fun rehearsing and performing on various occasions.

I had to quit because I wasn’t enjoying it anymore and it put a huge amount of stress on me.
This decision has  taken me quite some time but now I decided to follow through.

So now the band will be on a search for a new lead vocalist. So if you’re into rock music and live in the Netherlands and want to rehearse in the Utrecht regio then please consider the band Zabatista and go check out their site.  If you’re into songwriting and want to have a considerable amount of input into the songs then don’t hesitate.

For me I will focus on learning to play the guitar and sing along with acoustic sessions just for the fun of it. And hell no, I won’t stop singing. I wish the guys from Zabatista all the best and I will continue to see them because they’re all friends of mine. I just want them to get a real nice new singer.

And as far as the future goes, maybe we’ll perform again together sometime on a stage somewhere.

Kind regards,

Jöran
