About a year ago WT was approached by number-1 DJ of the world Armin van Buuren for a possible cooperation. Due to a lack of time nothing could be produced or written at the time. Sharon is always looking for a new challenge and as you might know she has a broad musical interest. Now WT is starting with the creative process for the next album Sharon decided to contact Armin as well. By that time he was busy finalizing his new album „Imagine“, but he did send her one track. She started working on it and wrote lyrics & a melody line for the song. Then they recorded the song which resulted in „In and Out of Love“. The song became one of Armin's favourite tracks on the album, which will be released this Saturday.

The story keeps getting better and better! Last week, WT received a World Music Award! These awards are based on record sales outside your own country and WT won it again. Additionally the have won an MTV Europe Music Award in the category “Best Dutch & Belgian act”. This makes a total of 5 awards this month, after 2 Dutch and 1 Belgium TMF Awards. Thank you so much for your vote!

Finally, we can announce the support acts of WT's show at the Beursgebouw in Eindhoven! A little while ago, WT announced progressive metal band Threshold (www.thresh.net) and here’s the second band that will be playing this evening! This will be Agua de Annique. This is the solo project of ex-The Gathering singer Anneke van Giersbergen. After 13 years she decided to start a solo career and dedicated herself in writing melodic pop/rock songs. This resulted in her debut album ‘Air’ that was recently released. (http://www.aguadeannique.com)
