Annelie

As a keyboardist and singer with well-known Dutch artists such as Eefje de Visser and Maaike Ouboter, Annelie has earned her stripes. Solo, she has chosen to make instrumental music, taking the piano as a starting point. Her previous piano solo albums After Midnight (2018) and Hertz (2021) were widely acclaimed and reached almost 50 million streams on Spotify alone. On April 12, Annelie will present her third album Sunne in the beautiful Paradijskerk in Rotterdam. Annelie wrote all the compositions on Sunne in the summer of 2023. Annelie: "It was a sunny and light period. Although this sounds quite light, it has at the same time become an extremely personal and melancholic record. Where my music used to be purely instrumental, Sunne is the first album that I largely produced myself and on which I added vocals for the first time." "We recorded in February, early spring. The first birds were singing in the garden. It felt intimate and grand at the same time. The theme of the album refers a lot to being outside and on the road, travelling, the changing climate. The heat, drought, water and wind. But also a feeling of nostalgia and melancholy."
