January 15 Elger is doing fine! Our drummer made national headlines this weekend when he injured himself during his job as a mailman. An approximately 3 inch piece from a metal fence pierced his groin when he stumbled over it. Today, stitched up and avoiding the double-bass parts, he was back in business. In a few weeks he will be the ‘old’ one again.

This was probably your last chance to see us in 2011. We will totally focus ourselves on writing new songs for the For Moments follow-up. Needless to say that if the opportunity to hit the stage comes along we will take it.

November 03 ‘For Moments Never Done’ review from Dante Blog USA. We are proud of this one... Quote: “Cirrha Niva is an experienced, professional prog-metal band with two phenomenal guitarists and a lead singer with a voice from another world. Their music reflects their professionalism, their arrangements are well-balanced, their recording near flawless, and their understanding of their ability to present each song with heart and spirit is inspiring.”

August 7 Cirrha Niva in search for new rhythm section! After thinking about if they could live up to the band’s expectations, drummer Wiebe Slim and recently joined bass player Jan van Baal will leave Cirrha Niva. Even though we understand their choice we still regret it, but in the end we both think it’s for the better. A short personal statement from the ex guys will follow soon on our News Page.
As result of this we are in search for a new drummer and bass player to complete the band. We are currently writing new songs for our next album. Are you or do you know someone who is motivated, talented and loyal, then drop us a line at cirrhaniva@gmail.com,or Facebook.
None of the gigs will be canceled! Drummer Eelco van der Meer and bass player Alex van Damme (who helped us out more than once now) will step in temporarily.
