Biography Stream of Passion

Stream of Passion


Stream of Passion is a progressive metal band with symphonic metal influence founded by Arjen Anthony Lucassen and Marcela Bovio. Because the musicians in the band lived thousands of miles apart, Lucassen composed the group's debut album, Embrace the Storm, over the Internet. It was released on October 24, 2005 on Inside Out records [1].

With the exception of vocalist Marcela Bovio, who had appeared on Ayreon's album The Human Equation, Lucassen selected little-known musicians to form this band.

UK Show Cancellation Controversy

Stream Of Passion was forced to cancel part of their European tour in February 2007, when they were stopped by United Kingdom immigration officials. The band were scheduled to play two UK shows, one in London and one in Sheffield. The officials at their entry point of Calais had suspicion that three of the members of the band, who were of Mexican origin, were planning on taking up illegal residence in the country.

Although the appropriate documents were presented, and there was assistance from concert promoters, embassy officials, and other immigrant officials, the matter was not rectified in time for the shows.
