The year is drawing to an end. Christmas is near and in a few weeks a new year will begin. Lets look back for a moment.

We've had a wonderful year with lots of new experiences. We sang with a big band, which was quite exciting and we've had our first extended tour in Germany. The A Cappella Naechte organized by Peter Martin Jakob. 

At the moment we're recording songs we're singing for quite some time now, but were not on our cd's. At the same time we're practising a few songs arranged by Luc and of course some new songs by The Real Group to which Jan Wouter has been listening very carefully in order to write them down.

There's no doubt that 2010 will bring lots of fun for Shiva Knows. A few days before 2009 will end we will meet with our soundman Jan. Together we hope to achieve yet another improvement in sound. Eventually our goal is to sound as natural as possible, using the advantages of mics.

Another project we were working on this year was the first Dutch CD-release of "Prinses Lillifee". A rather well-known animated character of very good nature. We were asked to do the choral parts which we recorded in a studio near Frankfurt. The result of our attempts to imitate a frog, bear, hamster, hedgehawk, beatle etc. can be heard now on the first Lillifee-CD.

We wish all of you the best for 2010! Let's try to respect everybody's individuality and yet let us be aware that we need each other to make it all happen!
