Take guilt. Take your great-grandfather's hate and taste it. It's hard to swallow.
Junior Brother - 'Take Guilt' for @theinfluences.bsky.social
This song is part of a trilogy of videos we filmed together for The Influences, all building toward the release of Junior Brother's album "The End".

When 2 of your favourite musicians join forces, I pick up my gear and film. Sometimes it is just that simple. This Wednesday, @theinfluences will share the first video of @bertolf & @diederiknomden 's session: 'Hysteria'. Which is the first single from their upcoming album.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of welcoming back two of my favourite Dutch artists, Case Mayfield and @awkwardi.bsky.social, for new sessions with The Influences. They each have new albums coming out this month, and I am lucky enough to capture their music as it continues to evolve.

Had a fun afternoon filming with Robert Ellis for the third time and with Belaver for the first. Didn’t even fall in the canal filming this, which is an achievement on its own.
New session coming today, stay tuned! Theinfluences.com/newsletter
