Songwriters Guild Live

Surabaya Kutha is a soulful, bicultural cross-over that bridges worlds, continents, and histories. Conceived during a tour across Java, the track serves as a tribute to the historic Indonesian port city of Surabaya. Sung entirely in Javanese over a warm landscape of lush analog synths and keyboards, the song is rooted in the nostalgic, melodic tradition of Krontjong while honoring my pre-slavery West African heritage. Weaving through the electronic textures are the enchanting sounds of the Kora, performed by the authentic Gambian griot Yankuba Konteh.

I’m dropping a new song called ‘It’s Been Good’—a reflection on life, the roads not taken, and realizing that even if things didn’t go as planned, it’s still been a beautiful journey so far. Sometimes the unexpected turns make the best stories. Hope it resonates with you. Have a listen!

Established in 2011, Radiator King’s music shows influences from both Dylan and Strummer with a sound described by Boston blog Allston Pudding as something akin to what “Tom Waits locked in a room for a month with nothing but a copy of Springsteen’s Nebraska” might produce. Whether alone with a guitar or backed by a band, Radiator King embodies the raw energy of punk, the grit and intricacy of delta blues, and the lyrical potency of folk in “songs…

It’s up, it’s down, it’s soft and loud, it’s dark and lonesome too, there’s hurt and shame and some mean old pain but you bet there’s love in what they do! There’s a hint of Gram, a sniff of Dylan and a twist of Waylon’s blues ... Simply put: it’s exactly what it says on the tin. Ter promotie van de CD Onontgonnen Gebied doet liedjesschrijver Henk Lammers aka Paco Plumtrek (dezelfde naam als z'n kleine podium in Almelo) een tour van Amsterdam, in april 2019. Onontgonnen Gebied is zijn derde CD, en z’n eerste in het Nederlands. Het laat zich omschrijven als akoestisch, maatschappijkritisch, romantisch, wispelturig.

But when you listen more closely more aspects of the music reveal itself. The clear melodies, the intricate fingerpicking and the lyrics that build scenes in which you can wander endlessly. Rachman’s craft is all about the song, taking cues from heroes like: Stevie wonder, Bill Withers, The Fleet foxes and John Mayer. Small songs with big intent, songs that celebrate life.

Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on artists who write their own songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide. Sinds twee jaar schrijft Frank Schagen onder de naam Klausing Duitstalige liederen. De muziek van Klausing is eigenzinnig. Ze is een smeltkroes van een muzikale reis door onder andere flamenco, klassiek, jazz en wereldmuziek. De teksten zijn direkt en poetisch. Enkele omschrijvingen van luisteraars zijn: “Schubert goes jazz”, “helemaal Zen” “de muziek is soms beklemmend, geaccentueerd door zorgvuldig gekozen dissonanten” en “klassieke avantgarde Rammstein”. Als gitarist heeft Frank een opleiding genoten aan het Fontys conservatorium te Tilburg. Binnen het duo Emunah schrijft en concerteert hij al ruim 10 jaar met eigen instrumentale muziek. Nu met Klausing geniet Frank van de scheppingsruimte, waarin klank- en taalexpressie hand in hand gaan. Naast het maken van muziek geeft Klausing in het ritme van de week yogalessen, gitaarlessen en improvisatiesessies. Sinds twee…

On his upcoming tour of Belgium and Netherlands, Damron will be backed by the best there is, bassist Allen Hunter of Eels fame and guitarist/producer Dan Eccles of Richmond Fontaine and Fernando. A subtly powerful trio to make you shout, cry, and remember what it means to be alive.

Bubblegum Slut/ UK: « A paradoxical mix of a Yorkshire man’s Northern bluntness that tells it like it is and a “continental poetic tongue which educates and stirs…! » - Stylusmag/ Canada: « Berry has a keen intellect, a disdain for those buffered from reality, and an internalized anger that fuels the vitriol in every adjective. It is real life undecorated, and smoulders like the everyday pressures. This is fucking brilliant. Clean glass please, and leave the bottle! » With the aid of an acoustic guitar or piano he sits centre-stage and recounts with his powerful seducing voice the tales of his life on the back streets of Leeds/England, his touring years through to his crippling road accident in Brighton/ England.

Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly radioshow in Amsterdam, focussed on artists who write their own songs. This week your host was Ro Halfhide. A Montréal-born Trinidadian-Canadian, Zaynab comes to the music scene with a wealth of cultural and musical diversity. Her recent Live EP (2018), is the debut to her career as a fronting singer-songwriter where she draws musical and rhythmic inspiration from her Caribbean roots and merges with folk, her heart and soul. Her voice is sweet, unaffected and naturally blended, and carries a strong sense of rhythm. Zaynab grew up in a large family of musicians, specializing on Steelpan, and got an early start to the life of an artist. Being the youngest of the lot of six children, the formula was already set by the time she was six. Zaynab was performing throughout Eastern Canada with her family, the "Von-Trapps of Steelpan", and gaining invaluable life lessons. Now, in addition to steelpan, Zaynab has grown into a sensitive, dynamic and well-rounded musician and is an…

With a commanding voice and remarkable melodic sensibilities, Laura Reznek makes music that is at once haunting and uplifting. Her songs offer an intimate look into the surreal world formed of memories by the restless mind, often needing little more than the dexterous flow of fingers across a piano to transform the raw material of a single human life into an expression of consciousness’ inherent uncertainty. Not conforming to the trappings of any single genre, Laura’s music is well aware of the vast Western canon upon whose shoulders it stands; listen closely and you will hear subtle homages to everything from mid-century cool jazz, blues, and gospel to modern folk and experimental pop. With such respect for tradition embedded in the music itself, Laura is able to flout modern musical norms in the framing of her live performances: you are more likely to find her playing in a bookshop, bell tower, or canal boat and see her sharing the stage with poets and chamber quartets. Songwriters Guild Live is a weekly…

The moody orchestra is a project of Amsterdam based, German singer- songwriter Tobias Oeckler. While mostly playing live on his own, his recorded works reach from fragile songwriting craft to collaborated tunes in more ,orchestrated’ garments, so to say. His latest albums ‚a big step’ and ‚aum’, that he simultaneously self-produced, clearly show this vibrant mix of contradicting opposites. His songs are characterized by their personal and poetic lyrics, sometimes cryptic and mysterious, sometimes chrystal clear, but almost always carried out in a cleansing melancholic mood. Combining elements of folk, punk, pop and roots rock, Matt Pless can lyrically turn a phrase with the best of them. He has been compared to some of the top songwriters of our time, including John Lennon, Paul Simon, John Prine and Bob Dylan. Known for his engaging and thought-provoking, witty, word labyrinths, Matt's music spans topics from love and loss to social commentary to ethereal train-of-thought abstractions, and everything in…

Guillaume Maupin (Saintonge records/ Matamore) sings songs since a very early age. Of course, humour does belong to music, and traditonnal, orginals, covers, wicked, strange songs are all part of his shows.

In his now celebrated Human Jukebox project, with his bands Music for Rabbits, Tartine de Clous, his conference/concerts, or through his Film Water Music, or solo, playing in houses, concert halls, bars,cinemas, he always take the audience for a fun multinlingual ride.
