No one can be as alone at Christmas as Stippenlift, the alter-ego of singer and producer Hugo van de Poel and CAGG regular. It may, again, not be the most uplifting track of the season, on the other hand: self-pity can sometimes feel like a warm bath too. But whatever lies beneath, every Christmas he manages to deliver his great depressing Christmas single so convincingly that it makes the undercooled eighties synths glow warmly again.
Wanna be together alone with Stippenlift? Go check a Christmas show at:
Merleyn, Nijmegen - 21 dec.
Paradiso, Amsterdam - 22 dec.
Hall of Fame, Tilburg - 23 dec.
