Hey there. Kristiaan Asscheman from the wonderful dudes of Faceculture.tv made a documentary about all the musical activity in Utrecht-city. We did some interviews with him, together with the guys from GEM, most unpleasant men, Cosmic Carnival, Beep! Beep! Back up the truck en the singer from I am Oak. pretty nice one, 30 minutes, 16 seconds.
it’s confirmed. We are very happy to play 3 july 2010 at Peacedog festival in Ede. Alongside no one less than MewithoutYou, who got back together to do their last show ever. Check out www.peacedog.nl for the complete line-up.
We will play all the new songs that we can finish before the showdate. We are working hard, HARD on those bastards. We hope you will enjoy them. Come and watch, come and listen, clap your hands, spill your beer. good times.
Last week we had a little try-out show on our boat. A night with new songs and old friends. It was a great night, the beer was cold and the water in which we jumped afterwards (oh we brave souls) was even colder. Thanks for all of you who came and crowded the place. Photo’s by Azarja Harmanny
After our show in The Melkweg, we decided we were at the end of an era with the band. Three years ago we recorded our first album, without help or money and with it, we made it to where we are today. A lot of doors are opening wide, great stages are waiting and we have lots of chances to play, but we feel we can take it all to a higher level.
The show in the Melkweg contained hints of new stuff, new plans and new music. We are now taking all our time to write our second album. You will not see us for a while, but when we’re back… it will be better than ever.
We have one gig booked where you can hear a preview from some new material. We play on 7 March at FabrIQ festival in Den Bosch. We love you and we’ll see you soon. Once in a while we’ll post something of our progress on this site, be sure to check back once in a while.
Results for the GPNL are in… and the most surprising part is that we still have enough strength to type this. For be it known that we played one of our maddest sets before an audience of 1300 people tonight. Finals GPNL.
Of course we didn’t win, but we did it our way, all the way. And it was good. Sound could have been better and second place pays jack shit, but we went out there hard, it was blazing lights all around.
UPDATE:
As we promised, there is video. The wonderful guys from faceculture filmed us for a bit before and during the finals. Here’s the result. Keep your eyes out for a short documentary about the Utrecht music scene coming soon…
Nadat het podium van de liters zweet is ontdaan wordt wederom een bekende van LiveXS verwelkomd. Stairs To Nowhere is als live-act gegroeid en zet wellicht de meest spannende show van de avond neer. De combinatie van onorthodoxe songstructuren met de goed uitgekiende lichtshow vormt een event op zich en kan rekenen op grote waardering in de zaal. De band wisselt, mede door toedoen van twee drummers, bombastische escapades af met onheilspellend rustige passages.
Stairs to Nowhere is an Amsterdam/Utrecht based band. They feel they can do better than they have done so far and are working on all new material. Check out their post here
