Our new Acoustic track 'Something Good' is out.
We are a Dutch indie band, combining catchy melodies, atmospheric sounds and thoughtful lyrics. Our band consists of Rogier Werschkull (vocals / guitar), Roeland van der Put (drums / keys / vocals) and David van Putten (drums / keys / guitar). We have been making music together since 2008, but only in 2023 decided to share our work with the world after the unexpected death of Rogier's dad. The sudden realization life is finite made us wake up!
That debut album, - Escalate -, is set to be slow-released on all streaming services starting the 13th of October 2023, along with 10 (mostly AI generated) music videos on Youtube.
Our band name is inspired by the post-war recovery program that helped rebuild Europe after WWI. We see our music as a way of expressing our hopes and fears for the future, as well as our love for the past. We're mainly inspired by 80s /90s bands like Depeche Mode, Interpol and Radiohead, to 00s artists like The Whitest Boy Alive and Metronomy.
Escalate was recorded in June 2023 at Martijn Groeneveld’s Mailmen studio, a renowned producer who has worked with dutch artists we also like: Blaudzun and Klangstof. The album contains 10 tracks that deal with topics such as corporate greed, war, inequality, fake news and the hard work that relationships sometimes take.
We hope you will enjoy our tunes and join us with escalating our music to the next level!
