Eluveitie coming to Bangladesh!

Fans of metal have amazing news as popular folk-metal band Eluveitie is coming to Bangladesh for the first time. Their official page in Facebook and the tour schedule on their website has confirmed this news. A post on their official page read, "We know you have been waiting a long time for this one, and trust us: so have we! We are beyond excited to announce our very first show in your wonderful country: 26th May, 2016: Eluveitie in Dhaka, Bangladesh." 

Founded in 2002 by Chrigel Glanzmann in Winterhur, Zurich, they are known for their infusion of traditional Celtic folk melodies to Gothenburg-styled melodic death metal. Eluveitie uses traditional folk instruments in their music, such as fiddles, tin whistles and flutes, bagpipes and hurdy-gurdies. The traditional folk tunes in their songs have been drawn from various sources, including traditional Irish reels. While many of their lyrics are in English, some are in the ancient extinct Gaulish language. Organized by Green Event Management, the details about the tickets will be shared online soon.
