All the ups and downs, drinks and burgers from Sonata Arctica‘s South American tour of will now be brought to you absolutely free via Sonata Arctica Television.
Join the band as they travel through South America, starting from Finland on October 14 and all the way through their adventures until they get back home on November 1.
Sonata Arctica’s lead vocalist Tony Kakko shares the background on the band’s dedicated YouTube channel: “The idea for this channel came about when I caught myself shooting a lot of video with my mobile phone on this latest Latin-American tour. As there was a lot of time to kill on the hotel rooms and airports, I figured trying to edit these bits and see what I can come up with. At least it might be something our families might enjoy to watch.”
