Last May, the Scottish band The Seventeenth Century played their very first show in The Netherlands, during the Onder Invloed night at Festival aan de Werf in Utrecht. And they did well. Rudy Mackay - 3FM radio dj and host of the evening - wondered 'how such young guys can sound so mature' and thought it was 'amazing'. Watch for yourself, I uploaded three songs.
In the fall of 2009, OnderInvloed.com's good friends Paul Tasker and Iona MacDonald of Doghouse Roses were touring Europe as support and bandmembers of Willard Grant Conspiracy. In September they played the Paradiso upstairs in Amsterdam, so that sunny afternoon we recorded a session with WGC. Two originals and one cover this time.
On the 11th of December 2009, Nat Jenkins flew over to Amsterdam from London to play the Onder Invloed show. His very first show in The Netherlands. Surely one to remember. In order for that to happen, Nat and OnderInvloed.com decided to put it out as a free download. Today, we release the live album 'Nat Jenkins - Live in Amsterdam' and we are rather proud of it.
