Many people thought that he'd said goodbye to music. That he'd retired his guitar. That he'd exclusively applied himself to painting beautiful works of art. But his passion for rock & roll always remained. It was only a matter of time, and that time is now: Adrian Vandenberg is back with a brand new band, Vandenberg's MoonKings. The band debuts in February 2014 with a hard rocking album, released worldwide by Mascot Records.
Adrian is very happy with his return to the international music scene. 'The last record I made was with Whitesnake in 1998. Now that I've announced my return, I am really overwhelmed by the thousands of enthusiastic reactions that I've gotten from all over the world. It amazes me how faithful the fans have remained.

It's just bizarre,' he says. And with a smile he adds: 'And it just so happens that the MoonKings album is the best record I've ever made. Well, in my modest opinion, anyway.
People probably expected the obvious classic rock, but I didn't want to go that route semi-automatically. I wanted to build a bridge between the greatest rock of the seventies and that of today, and I have the feeling that worked out very well.' It was around the turn of the millennium when Adrian Vandenberg reached a crossroads in his life. He had played with singer David Coverdale's super group Whitesnake for thirteen years, topped the American charts twice and sold in excess of fourteen million albums, when that band took a break. The guitarist decided to focus on his other passion: Art.
There was so much interest in his paintings, that several leading European galleries planned exhibitions of his work. These things take a long time to prepare, so that frustrated any musical plans.
'But much more importantly, my daughter was born,' he says. 'And I wanted to see Mickey grow up as much as possible.' The guitar hero said goodbye to Whitesnake, enjoyed his father role and lost himself in his art. However, he didn't think it would take him this long to get back to making music.
'In hindsight I must say that these last fourteen years or so simply zipped. I really wanted to start playing a lot sooner, but time really flies. Looking back at it now, I do believe that everything developed in a completely natural way, that I subconsciously let my intuition determine that now was the best time to do this.' The turning point came in 2011, when Adrian was asked to write a song for FC Twente, the football club from his hometown of Enschede that had become the champions of the Dutch premier league the year before.
He wrote the stadium rock song A Number One and looked for someone who would be able to sing it. He remembered a vocalist whose band had supported Whitesnake at a concert in Holland several years before. Adrian tracked him down and picked up the phone. Singer Jan Hoving remembers it well: 'When I got a call from someone who said he was Adrian Vandenberg, I thought they were playing a joke on me.' The phone call changed his life: 'When we met, we hit it off immediately, both musically and on a personal level.'
Advertising arens schaefer weigold pdf free software. Jan sang A Number One effortlessly. Because the song was going to be performed at FC Twente's victory celebrations for a crowd of 60,000, Adrian needed a rhythm section.
A friend told him about Mart 'Martman' Nijen-Es. It turned out that Adrian met him in a previous life: 'About ten years ago, I was a judge in a talent contest, and this 13-year old drummer just blew me away.
I let him win. Turns out that was Mart!'
Truth often is stranger than fiction, because incredibly, Adrian met his future bass player the same way: 'Mart had a buddy he'd been playing with for many years, bass player Sem 'the Sham' Christoffel. Believe it or not, I judged Sem in a different talent contest around the same time I first saw Mart, and he impressed me enormously by casually playing a Jaco Pastorius-like piece. And I let him win as well!' Together with Jan, Sem and Mart Adrian performed at FC Twente's championship celebrations, and again later, at a Football Player of the Year Awards show.
