Galleons

The foundations of Galleons were layed during the summer of 2012. Based in London & Utrecht, the Netherlands, the band draws on a wide range of influences from folk, rock, jazz & classical genres to create a diverse and original sound.

Featuring (ex-) members of Alcuna Wilds / Cymbaline / Mevrouw Tamara / Goodwin Sands / A Neat Science, 2013 saw the band play a handful of shows in the Netherlands, whilst working on a handful of songs for their self-titled debut E.P. February 2014 saw the release of this recording, and was followed by a March U.K. tour and numerous shows throughout the Netherlands.

A new E.P., entitled ‘Stalemate’, was released on 18th January 2016. To celebrate this release, the band shall be playing across the U.K. and Netherlands in the coming months.

Galleons are:
Matt Berns – vocals
Pete Barnes – guitar

Nieske

Melancholic indie folk from Nijmegen, The Netherlands

The Dutch indie folk singer Niekse plays melancholic songs. With a backpack full of band experience, he makes his way through a world through a world that fascinates him ever since childhood, solo since 2015. His sound is inspired by both traditional folk/americana and contemporary indie music, resulting in an ambient, recognisable blend.

In March 2016, his untitled debut EP was festively released in his hometown Nijmegen, and celebrated with shows in The Netherlands, Germany and France. Also, Niekse is the co-founder and a proud member of the Liedjescollectief.
