FEBRUARY 2007

We are very pleased to announce the addition of a new guitarist in the band. The search took a very long time, but this one stood out, fit in, and shows promise of bringing Artisan's music to an even better place.  Please welcome guitarist, Ian Jekelis to the Artisan fold. You will be hearing his amazing lead skills on the up and coming Artisan full length.  We intend to get back out there now that the line up is full once again and play some shows. Actually, we intend to play more shows than ever.  What is done of the album so far sounds very good and we are looking forward to sharing it with the world. Please check back frequently for news regarding the recording, a new bio page on Ian Jekelis, and show information.
