The yearly Christmas A Go Go spectacular in club Paradiso Amsterdam is NIGH, people. On December 16, the cream of the alternative Christmas scene will perform a very versatile bunch of Christmas(-y) songs in the upstairs room. New names, old faves, they're all there. And we hope YOU will there too!
So what's in store?
GINGE will be present, the Utrecht-based, sultry soul singer who surprised us with her latin-flavoured, anti-Xmas dinner pop song this year.
S.LOIS will be performing. Our mascotte. The banjo-wielding maestro from Meppel. The bluegrass boogieman. it's his third time at CAGG and certainly not his last. This is the gorgeous tearjerker he released this season:
We are very pleased that Patrick PONDERTONE is performing with a band. His Christmas songs have been highlights on the blog every year. A new track is coming up, and will be posted here asap. For now, here's a blast from the past:
TRUUS DE GROOT is Dutch punk royalty. She can say she recruited Lee Renaldo in her band, performed with Rhys Chatham, has an eclectic back catalogue AND a personal view on Christmas classics. This promises to be...different.
ROBIN KESTER made the bestest Dutch rock album last year, so said the two leading newspapers in Holland. Which was totally correct. Robin was also part of the Clean Pete Xmas Revue, and released her own Christmas song. AND will release a new version this year! Watch this space!
THE MIETERS play beatmuziek. Garage rock. Nederbiet. Surf rock. Give it a name. In Dutch. We had 'm on the blog with their gigantically cool Christmas tune earlier, and they're rehearsing new stuff as we speak. This will be totally MIETERS:
THE GREY PANTS are Henk and Elke. You know Henk as the singer of Hallo Venray, a cultband in Holland who made several totally fantastic rock albums. As The Grey Pants, Elke and Henk made two very charming indiepop albums, a new one is on the way. They're debuting their Christmas tracks this year at CAGG!
