And don't forget Darkside if the Moon. Her side project with guitarist Hans 'der Aufrechte' Platz (Feuerschwanz), harpist Jenny 'Mieze Myu' Diehl (Feuerschwanz) and drummer Morten Løwe Sørensen (Amaranthe).
The new project of Thomas Winkler is Angus McSix, besides him the band consists of guitarist Thalia Bellazecca (Aexylium, ex-Frozen Crown), drummer Manuel 'Manu' Lotter (ex-Rhapsody of Fire) and guitarist, bassist & backing vocalist Sebastian 'Seeb' Levermann (Orden Ogan). Melissa Bonny is from the French speaking part of Switzerland, her main band is Ad Infinitum (symphonic metal, somtimes with some sprinkles of metalcore or trancecore) founded in 2018 (originally as a solo project). She was in the Swiss power metal band Evenmore from 2012 to 2018. From 2015 to 2021 she was in the Swiss trance metal/ melodic death metal group Rage of Light. She was recurring guest/ live vocalist for the Austria based multi national power metal band Warkings (under the stage name Queen of the Damned) and is currently supporting the US power metal/ symphonic metal group Kamelot on tour. There is also the symphonic metal supergroup/ side project The Dark Side Of The Moon, consisting of Melissa Bonny, guitarist Hans Platz (Feuerschwanz), Danish drummer Morten Løwe Sørensen (from the otherwise Swedish trancecore/ melodic death metal band Amaranthe) and harpist Jenny Diehl (usually one of Feuerschwanz' dancers/ stage & video preformers [the red haired one of the axe-wielding ladys]). Their main focus is on covers of media related songs (movies, tv-shows, games) but they have some awsome originals too. On the studio recordings the bass guitar is played by Fabio Trentini (worked with Guano Apes, H-Blockx & Subway to Sally [to name a few]) on the live shows the bassist of Ad Infinitum, Korbinian 'Korbi' Benedict, supported them. Fabienne Erni from Eluveitie was guest singer on New Horizons (original song). Other video releases are: Jenny Of Oldstones (Game of Thrones cover) #recommended May It Be (Lord of the Rings cover) feat. Charlotte Wessels (ex-Delain [Dutch symphonic metal band]) Double Trouble/ Lumos (Harry Potter cover) feat. Rusanda Panfili (classical violinist from the Hans Zimmer live show orchestra) The Gates of Time (original) #recommended Legends Never Die (League of Legends cover) First Light (original), the audio on this is the studio recording (again feat. Rusanda Panfili) the visuals is footage from their first (four) live shows in May this year.
I love Manowar, but this version is so, so much better than the original.
So this was your first time seeing Melissa Bonny? Time to check out her band Ad Infinitum then 😉
I will do that.

Sounds cool. I'll have to check them out.
Amazing band, you'll love the original versions, too. ✊
the long axe thing is called a halberd. very deadly mid range attack weapon. the bassist plays a halberd if you look.
A so called thunder harp combo but is only a prop
