The Xanthi experience

Hi, Eugene. Thank you so much for the big, bold attention of Xanthi Music! We really loved being on the cover! Lots of people commented at our 10th celebration. So, did we help sell lots of papers (oh, it’s free – ha ha!).

We hope you’ll want to do it again when our CD is ready early next year, with a complete photo of Mistic Rein. You’ll never believe why our drummer missed the photo shoot; he got married that night! Once again, thank you! Keep in touch and take care. – Iris Mareina, lead singer of Mistic Rein

Keep up the good work at the Xanthi studio.
