After gracing us last year with an unforgettable show, we are ecstatic to welcome ML Buch to Amsterdam once again, this time in the warm intimacy of Concertgebouw’s recital hall. Don’t fret as the days grow darker and shorter, Buch’s 7-string guitar will bring you the right touch of sunny acoustics to brighten your day, week, month, year.
ML Buch is Marie Louise Buch, a Copenhagen-based composer, producer, guitarist and vocalist. Following debut EP ‘Fleshy’ in 2017 she released her critically acclaimed album ‘Skinned’ on Danish imprint Anyines in 2020. ‘Suntub’ is her second full length release, a double album consisting of 15 tracks, and was released in October 2023 on cult new label 15 love. Buch’s compositional practice sketches up sound in an almost architectural way, crafting and assembling raw sonic material into an immersive landscape of her own. Her live performances, both in solo and group formations, are reflective of her love of combining 7-string electric guitars in open tunings with synthetic instruments and electronic experiments. Previously working with themes of digital intimacy and modern love, her latest album lyrically departs toward more worldly, visceral sentiments. Glimmering guitar melodies re-amped through liminal space create the underpinnings for Buch’s musings on nature, the flesh, connection and disconnection.
Get ready to ascend from your seat into a hyper-real dreamscape imbued with touches of alt-rock nostalgia that will keep your ears buzzing for days on end. Trust us when we say this is a performance you won’t want to miss. See you the 22nd of November.
