Other Lives is an American indie and folk band, founded in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The band immediately gained public attention when their single was used for the television series Grey’s Anatomy. By now the band has built up an impressive amount of music loving fans all over the world. Radiohead and Bon Iver have stated that they’re fans of the band.
Even though earlier work of Other Lives often got the label ‘folk’ because of their use of acoustic instruments, the band has taken a step away from that with their latest release. ‘Rituals’ (2015) is a thoughtful and beautiful album to listen to and the band wrote more than 60 songs for it. The album was very well-received by music blogs. OOR: “Every sound, every break, every piece of percussion, every word, every choir – everything is meticulously in place and everything has a function.”
For people who aren’t yet familiar with Other Lives: you cannot miss this concert if you are a fan of The National, Bon Iver, Patrick Watson or Tindersticks. Definitely have a listen to the songs on this concert page (upper right) or check out Other Lives on Spotify.
Other Lives is een Amerikaanse indie- en folkband, opgericht in Stillwater, Oklahoma. De band stond meteen in de belangstelling doordat de eerste single werd gebruikt voor de televisieserie Grey’s Anatomy.
Hoewel eerder werk van Other Lives door gebruik van akoestische instrumentatie vaak het label folk meekreeg, neemt de band hier afstand van met de laatste release. ‘Rituals’ (2015) is een doordacht en prachtig luisteralbum waarvoor de band meer dan 60 nummers schreef. Het album werd lovend ontvangen door muziekblogs. OOR: “Elk geluidje, elke break, elk stukje percussie, elk woord, elk koortje – alles zit minutieus op z’n plek en alles heeft z’n functie.”
Voor mensen die nog niet bekend zijn met Other Lives. Dit concert mag je niet missen als je fan bent van The National, Bon Iver, Patrick Watson of Thindersticks. Beluister vooral eens de nummers (rechtsboven) op deze concertpagina of check Other Lives op Spotify.
Voorprogramma: Black Oak
Black Oak is de band gevormd rondom de singer-songwriters Geert van der Velde (The Black Atlantic) en Thijs Kuijken (I am Oak). Beide songwriters waren al lang fan van elkaars bands. In 2014 gingen beide songwriters met elkaar aan de slag gingen om samen muziek te schrijven. Het resultaat was Black Oak.
Na het uitbrengen van de “Black Oak” split EP en een gezamenlijke tour door Duitsland en Switzerland in 2014 bleven de heren nummers schrijven en inmiddels is Black Oak een volwaardige band, los van The Black Atlantic en I am Oak. In Oktober 2015 zal de nieuwe EP “Gallop” uitkomen als voorproefje op het debuutalbum “Equinox” wat in de Lente van 2016 zal verschijnen.
” Listening to Rituals is like slipping into a hazy dream or listening to a classical thrift shop find. It’s charming and enveloping, but more importantly, it sets up Other Lives for future efforts now that their folk ties have been shed. “

Albumrecensie Consequence of Sound
” Elk geluidje, elke break, elk stukje percussie, elk woord, elk koortje – alles zit minutieus op z’n plek en alles heeft z’n functie. Ontwerpbureau Other Lives in full swing, maar gelukkig bleef de boel precies warm en organisch genoeg om te overtuigen.”
