ALL THE PEOPLE OFFICIAL VIDEO

June 1st, 2012

So here it is, we are beyond proud to present to you the official video of our new single All The People.

The video was shot in Gambia, Africa and we decided that all the song’s iTunes proceeds will go to the health centre and elementary school in Berrending in Gambia. More information here: www.pallum.nl.
Download ‘All The People’ on iTunes HERE.

Obviously we’d like to create a big buzz to raise as much money for Berending as possible. Sharing on facebook, retweeting, blogging, etc is much much appreciated (see the facebook en twitter icons below). We also made a short documentary about the school and health centre, watch it here.

Thanks so much for your help and support and till we meet again!

With love,
Robin, Hubrecht, Laurens, Tom and Jordy

2ND SUPPORT ACT RELEASE SHOW: INDEVOTION

March 29th, 2012

IndevotionWe’re really stoked to tell you that the second support act on the ‘ILLUMINATE’ release show will be Indevotion from Sweden.

The five of us have been listening to Indevotion’s EP a lot the last few months: the songs are amazingly good. It’s safe to say that they are one of the best new bands from Europe and you will especially love them if you dig bands like Paramore and Anberlin.

Check out Indevotion on Spotify or Facebook.

The time schedule for the album release show will be:

Doors 19:30
Indevotion 20:00 – 20:25
Mary Has A Gun 20:40 – 21:05
Destine 21:25 – 22:45
End of show 22:45

You can buy your tickets for the show HERE.

Destine ‘Illuminate’ release show
Date: Friday, April 6th
Venue: Melkweg, Amsterdam (NL)
Supports: Mary Has A Gun (FR), Indevotion (SWE)

All the best,
Robin

ILLUMINATE TRACK #1: FOUR LEAF CLOVER

March 23rd, 2012

Four Leaf Clover

Here it comes, sinking in, building up inside of me
I’m holding on to the things that I wish that I could be
But I’m tired of running, standing still
Oh if I could learn to close my eyes maybe this could be real

I need a little bit o’ luck tonight before I burn out
Or take a minute when it all comes down and hear my heart die out
Just a little bit too much tonight before our time is through
I need a little bit o’ luck tonight from you

Ever stronger than before, feel it weakening my knees
And I run, I’m longing for all the things that I can’t reach
As I find what isn’t there, oh unclarity it makes me blind
I wish I’d read between the lines

Uncertainty, or is it me
All I can see, oh it’s a masterpiece
Anxiety, it’s weakening me
All that I see, oh it’s a masterpiece
I see you in my marrow

Like what you hear? You can pre-order the album here.
Buy tickets for the release show on April 6 in Amsterdam here.
