Post-rehearsal glow and a meeting that lit the spark: we’re officially gearing up for our very first music video.

Also: we’re looking for a meeting room/office space (area Amsterdam) to shoot part of the video — something with character. If you know a place, hit us up!

We got some tough news yesterday — something we were really looking forward to won’t be happening. It’s hard not to feel heavy about it. But there’s also so much ahead: a video shoot soon, shows coming up, and our album this fall. It stings, bút, there’s a lot to be excited about 🖤🖤🖤

The stage may be quiet for now, but something’s brewing behind the scenes. A glimpse into the rehearsal room… and a first single creeping closer, with visuals to match. The album arrives this fall. Stay close.

Our first ever merch — wooden keychains carved from leftover Amsterdam wood! Dreamed up and brought to life by Sophie, one piece at a time. Grab one to support us and carry a part of our journey with you 🖤

Available at our shows and at Helicopter

(Pssst, also wearable as earring 😉)

Saturday at #Vondelbunker — raw, unpolished, and full of grit.
With the cinematic storms of Mowing Flowers and the deep tides of Have The Moskovik. Between #darkfolk, #punk, and #post-rock, the night moved through tension, #noise, and fragile moments.
🖤 to everyone who came #underground with us.

Melancholy in music, mischief in life. Who said sad songs can’t come with a side of fruit? 🤣🍊🎶
This Saturday, we bring the gloom to the #Vondelbunker, alongside our friends Mowing Flowers & Have the Moskovik. See you there? 🌑✨
