STILLWAVE
Music
It started with jumping into a sweaty rehearsal room with two of the best songwriters I’ve ever met. And before I knew it we formed a band.
Between 2011 and 2015, we played on stage in front of mostly reluctant Dutchies and a whole lot of overexcited Brits (‘bring back the Dutch boys!’). We played over a hundred live shows and recorded several EP’s and singles.
Some highlights were playing hometown shows in Ekko and Tivoli de Helling, but also taking the stage at Melkweg and Bevrijdingsfestival, playing the equally touristy and iconic Cavern Club in Liverpool and low key trashing the stage, returning 3 times to the Washy in Sheffield, and seeing Q Magazine write great things about one of our singles.
And speaking of dope press coverage, Stillwave taught me PR.
