Now that our new album is out and summer festivals have been a blast, it’s time to hit the clubs! We’ll be playing fun shows in Germany, Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands, and we’d love to see you at one (or more!) of them! To spread the word about this TOGETHER tour we made a music video for Action Reaction. And of course you can still check the album physically and digitally.

We’re very excited to play our new music to friends in cities we’ve been to before, and make new friends in places like Retie and Oberhausen. Expect many tunes from the new album on the setlist! For all tour details, tickets and Facebook events, visit the tour section on our website.

As a bonus announcement we have an Italian tour coming up:
Nov 09 Milano
Nov 10 Verona
Nov 11 Livorno
Nov 12 Torino
More news about that soon…

Action Reaction

Our friend Bram Bergs made a music video for ACTION REACTION to accompany the TOGETHER tour announcement! When releasing TOGETHER this track got a lot of positive feedback even though we never released it as a separate single. Now we’re making up for that with this great video starring your favorite decadent elitist populists! Check the video on our YouTube channel!

Together

We’re still getting a lot of feedback for our new album! Some really love hearing the singles in an album context, others appreciate the theme and coherence of the album. To get an LP/CD/tape or check it at Bandcamp, Spotify and all the usual sources, visit the album page on our website! Find shirts and other albums in our webshop.

That’s it for now, thanks for reading our newsletter! Don’t be shy, hit reply; we love hearing from you… In the next episode you will find details for the Italian tour, and maybe a tour announcement with dates in the south-west of Europe?
Take care, Ben, Riekus & Willem

We’re taking the final step before the full length release: a brand new single and the album pre-order! Check FROM CITY TO CITY and if you like what you hear, pre-order TOGETHER on LP / CD / tape. Check the single, music video and pre-order via our website.

FROM CITY TO CITY

Where touring and critical thinking meet. We always wonder what kind of people we will meet when touring across the world. The advantage of living in a globalizing world is that there’s “great minds thinking alike” on the other side of the world. A disadvantage is that you might be out of touch with your direct neighbor. FROM CITY TO CITY is about feeling connected to people on the other side of the world, while feeling disconnected from people living right around the corner. Even though oceans are keeping us apart, the islands we live on are connected. Bogota, Colombia sometimes feels closer than Groesbeek.

The FROM CITY TO CITY music video footage was crowdsourced at recent shows in Bochum, Wiesbaden, Alfeld, Glauchau, Würzburg, Liège, Nijmegen and on the road in between. Thank YOU for filming, dancing and singing along to a song you’d never heard before! Credits to Jay at Moonboy Films for editing.

TOGETHER

As of now you can pre-order our new album! We’ve got LPs, CDs, Tapes, album & shirt bundles, and limited editions of the album. The tracklist includes brand new musical discoveries and your favorite previously released digital singles within an album context, all in your physical format of choice! Albums come with lyrics and extensive liner notes. LPs are eco-friendly produced and come in a gatefold sleeve with transparent green vinyl, CDs come in a digipak and tapes are limited to only 25 hand numbered copies. TOGETHER comes out on May 2, and your physical copy will be with you on the release date.

Are you a label or someone that wants to do the release/distribution TOGETHER with us? Get in touch!
