Confirmed: Aqua are together again (26/10/2007)

This is what all Aqua fans have been waiting for. Like Gaffa.dk revealed some days ago, today Claus, Lene, Ren� and S�ren gave a press conference in Copenhagen to confirm that they have reformed Aqua. Although concrete details are still vague, there seem to be plans of going on tour next summer 2008, at least around Denmark. No talk about a new album, but a Greatest Hits seems likely.

Ten years have passed since the band bursted in, topping the charts around the world with their debut album Aquarium and their first international single Barbie Girl. And six years have passed since, in August 2001, they announced a temporal break of the band.

Since then, the four members concentrated in their private life and tried to start a solo career. Claus got married with her girlfriend, Lene and S�ren got married together and had two children. Lene released her solo debut Play with me in 2003, which was unsuccessful despite the promising results of It's you duty single. With diverse fortune, Ren� has released three solo singles (the last one being Jamaican Ska, under the Mista Dif alias, which was a hit in Denmark this summer); he's still recording his solo album, due to be released next year. S�ren has produced many hit songs for many danish artists, and he has also experimented success with his projects Lazyboy and, joining with his nephew Nicolaj Rasted, Hej Matematik. Claus has been the quietest member of the four, but he made an awesome remix of Lazyboy's Facts of life, collaborated in Ren�'s Let it all out single and co-produced with S�ren some songs for Pooodle.

Through all this years, it has been very rare to see the four members together: mainly at some danish awards ceremonies, but they also got joined by film director Tomas Gislason for the Aqua documentary Turn Back Time. And, like we said yesterday, they were seen some days ago at the release party of Private's album, and Lene, Claus and Ren� play a cameo in Hej Matematik's last video, Centerpubben, which you can see here.


With this press conference, which took place at 13:00 in Copenhagen's Custom House, the insistent rumours are finally confirmed: Aqua are back. Today, even the former official site has started working again: Aqua.dk, although it doesn't look like an official update and some rumours point to the new domain Aquamusic.dk as the new official site. Aquarama.tk will be updating any new details and news that appear about Aqua reunion. For now, congratulations to all the fans and thanks to Claus, Lene, Ren� and S�ren for getting Aqua back again!
