Dutch improvising trio Under the Surface have released a video to accompany the publication of a book giving an insight into the group’s philosophy and approach to making music.
Comprising three generations of adventurous Dutch musicians, Under the Surface formed in 2015 and released the first of their three albums in 2017.
They have played concerts all over the world and until relatively recently always performed in their original line-up of Sanna Rambags (vocals), Bram Stadhouders (guitar) and Joost Lijbaart (drums and percussion).
In the summer of 2024 they invited singer-guitarist Annabel Laura and double bassist Nathan Wouters to augment the trio. The video captures this personnel at the famous Dingwalls rock club in London, performing music from the group’s third album, Miin Triuwa, on which they performed pre-composed songs for the first time.
Under the Surface return to the UK in October to play concerts in Newton Abbot (Thursday 3rd) and Chepstow (Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th).
