A tribute to the makers of society

Making, building and creative hands. At work and at home. Helping, stroking and saving hands. By caring and loving in families and relationships. Hands can make what our eyes can see. Hands can make or break our relationships. We tell a story with our hands.

Hands are valuable tools. For the makers who help shape and keep our society running and for all of us to support each other. Or the encouraging handshake as soon as the rules allow it again. Making, building, creating and connecting hands.

As a band we pay tribute to these crucial limbs by celebrating craftsmen from our hometown Zwolle. The stories of a chef, farmer, furniture maker, artist, motorcycle mechanic, baker and tattoo artist all come together in the new video clip shot by (Dutch 3FM / Radio 2) photographer and filmmaker Bullet Ray (Raymond van Olphen).

The release of Hands is accompanied by a fan contest, in which the fans participated by singing the chorus "build it with your hands" and doing something with their hands.

Come all you children 
All you lost and lonely
Hear, all you busted 
All you waifs and strays

The world is out there
You could be free if only
We use our hands 
And free our chains

It ain’t the heartless
It ain't the blinded, baby
Don't be misguided
By their suits and ties

It’s about you and I
Making it together, baby
From where we stand
We build it with our hands

It’s hands that make
Build, create
The valuable and even fake
Hands that help
Caress and save
Build it with your hands
Build it with your hands
Build it with your hands
Build it with your hands

Cry if you want to
It will get you nowhere
Scream at the ones you
Don’t even know

Don’t look for an answer
In your mothers eyes
Think of a new way
To ease your mind

It’s hands that make
Build, create
The valuable and even fake
Hands that help
Caress and save
Build it with your hands

You say your prayers or raise your fist
At least you’ve made a stand
I know it’s more than you can take
You sure could use a friend

From where we stand
Fear is not the end
From where we stand
Build it with your hands
Build it with your hands

Build it with your hands
(repeat)

‘You can label our style as modern 80’s indie rock.’

80's style indierock

With stories about this world. Energetic, warm, melancholic and sometimes critical. Grown up in the 80’s, they love the sounds of this golden era; it’s in their blood. Talk Talk, Duran Duran, Pink Floyd, Tears for Fears and Peter Gabriel. Nowadays they get inspired by everything good like Radiohead, Editors, Elbow, Tame Impala & well, just good music.

Energetic, driving and diverse

Musically skilled, no stagefright and with enough experience in life to tell a good story or two. So old music for old people? No f*-ing way. Energetic, driving and diverse, they bring high quality musical magic!

As we grew up in the 80’s we love the sounds of this golden era, it’s in our blood. We listened to Talk Talk, Duran Duran, Pink Floyd, Tears for Fears and Peter Gabriel. Nowadays we listen to Radiohead, Editors, Elbow & everything new that’s just good music.

Label it ‘modern 80’s style dark-edged indie rock (they’re really indie, no record labels). Whatever you label it, it’s all about making music, the best thing in life to do since they were born.

In the past they all made music in several bands like Soulstar, City Jam & Band of Glory and professionally as hired guns in the commercial music industry. With PTS, three of five band members played with Marillion in the late 90’s.

We don’t do mic checks and shout our own name.
We’re 98% autotune free.
