NEWSLETTER MARCH 2023: Single Release & Album Pre-order

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.

Artwork From City To City

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.

Music video From City To City

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.

Deconstructing I WROTE THIS SONG – episode 1

As promised, another pandemic project: the deconstruction of one of our songs! I Wrote This Song is the song we worked on the most, we did like 60(!) demo versions, it only made sense to start with this one. In this first episode you’ll hear the track that inspired us, the individual riffs that led to the writing of the track, riffs we didn’t use and how we record ideas and turn them into demos. Find the first episode below, more to follow!

Propagandhi / Antillectual / Matt Milkowski – Contest Song / Common Threads

Is it a cover? A collaboration? Musical assault?

Unscripted Moments (A podcast about Propagandhi) gave us a pandemic homework assignment: add vocals to Propagandhi’s Contest Song. Matt Milkowski wrote the lyrics and Willem recorded them to Propagandhi’s instrumental track. Here you can find the complete podcast episode about the track.

Hope you enjoy the final result as much as we did creating it!
