The Amsterdams

The Amsterdams are a Romanian indie/electro outfit formed in Bucharest, 2005,
fueled by their passion for the fresh, authentic new musical wave coming out of
the alternative scene. The Amsterdams’ gigs are bursts of energy with their stage dynamics
permanently changing ( the band members constantly switch instruments ). Their ease of improvisation, along with the deep lyrical meaning, offers the
audience an experience full of optimism and hints of nostalgia. The band released three albums, Adolessons (2009), Electromagnetica (2011) and Winds Apart (2013)
under their own indie label (Post Pop Records), the second being mastered by
Harris Newman (Crystal Castles, Arcade Fire) and featuring Dan Boeckner (Wolf
Parade, Handsome Furs) on one song. They toured extensively supporting Wolf Parade (2010 European Tour) and on
their own (England, Scotland, Spain, Hungary, Sweden), a full length India Tour in 2014 and played all major
festivals in Romania (B’estfest, Stufstock, Peninsula / Félsziget, LiveLand,
Underlondon), supporting bands such as Morcheeba, The Cranberries, Nazareth, The
Whitest Boy Alive, The Dandy Warhols.
