Peal

Band

Our line-up consists of Bart Lut (guitarist), Maurice Trompert (bassist) and Alain de Jager (drummer). The decision to go for instrumental music was made to put the interplay between our three instruments more central.

Recordings

The first professional recording was put out in 2005. ‘The Burn Construct’ features four tracks. This EP got us positive reviews (amongst others, demo of the month in the music magazine Fret) and led to gigs in – to name one – Paradiso, Amsterdam as a part of the Live XS Locals Only! program.
At the end of March 2008, we put out another EP. ‘Brachland’ was once again recorded by Oscar Bor (Source Recording Studios) and contains three tracks. Brachland came together in collaboration with Baracca (visual artists Robin Ineke and Yvo van der Vat).

Gigs

We have had the privilege to perform in some great venues such as Winston, Amsterdam, SCCI-cell, The Hague and the State-X New Forms festival 2007 (Paard van Troje, The Hague) as part of a bill featuring such artists as Motorpsycho, Aphex Twin, Jesu and Sunn O))). Recently we played the Vera in Groningen and several other venues in the area of The Hague.

New songs

We are currently working on new material. Expect to hear more about that next year.
