Dear family & friends, For two weeks to come, you won’t be able to see us, reach us or find us. We’ll have vanished from the face of the earth. After a long Popronde tour, the time has come, the hour has rung, the bell has finally tolled. We’re recording the album. Soon we’ll have [...]
The Popronde went out with a bang this weekend! After what was supposed to be the last show @ Dynamo Eindhoven (photos here), our friends from The Mad Trist convinced us to join them for a guerilla gig @ de Effenaar @ 03:30. Avant La Lettre & The Mad Trist on stage, together. Ofcourse way [...]
