Yesterday evening we gave another livestream concert again. Usually 80 to 90% of the songs played are written by ourselves, but this time this was the case for 100%, for the first time in our livestream sessions. You can still watch the concert here:
Next Friday, on the 2nd of July we release our brand new upcoming single ‘Beyond the Tides!’
You can already presave this single here, (it’s free and it takes no more than literally 2 seconds of your time) on you Spotify or Apple Music app. The more people who do this, the more exposure the single will get. And then you’re one of the first people who’ll hear it! Thank you very much in advance for it!
The live version of our upcoming single Beyond the Tides is highlighted this week on the Streamsonic platform of Pinguin Radio. If you’re curious of the live version of our upcoming single, then you can watch the live video here. The single will be released on the 2nd of July. It’s already possible to pre-save it on your Spotify app, then you will see it in your release radar automatically.
And there is more. On Sunday evening, June the 27th we will give another free, online livestream concert, this time again with two brand new songs and four(!) live cameras. We start on 8.30 PM. Only IF the Dutch footballteam has to delay the European Championship match because of extra penalties (and we certainly don’t hope for that!) we could start fifteen minutes later.
Finally we are able to release our new single ‘Beyond the Tides.’ You can already pre-save our new single right now. Then it will show automatically in the release radar at the homepage of your Spotify app. Are you using Apple Music instead? No problem, the single will be released there too on the second of July. Just visit this webpage already right now to hyperfollow Chabliz and to listen to our new single as soon as it’s released.
Our next livestream concert will be on the 27th of June. Last Sunday we had the first rehearsal for it, after almost one month of corona quarantine for Marcel, our bassplayer.
The good news is that our ‘Beyond the tides’ single is finally completely ready. Yesterday evening Pim put the finishing touches to the master. The song will be released at the end of June.
The bad news is that we had to postpone our livestream concert again, this time to June 27, because Marcel, our bassplayer, is recovering from corona. He is quite good on track with his recovery, but it’s a bit too early to give a concert already, because we couldn’t rehearse for a few weeks because of his quarantine and, after that, his illness. We hope to rehearse together again next week and we wish him a speedy and complete recovery!
Dear friends, due to the corona-quarantine of Marcel, our bassplayer, our online livestream concert unfortunately had to be postponed from May the 16th to June the 6th (8.30 PM CET). We’re still looking forward to play for you again! We were just glad that we could play in the evening again after the curfew had been ended, but now our bassplayer is in a quarantaine…… Anyway, in June we’ll bring you a few brand new songs, four camera’s instead of three, a great sound and a very good atmosphere. We’ll meet you there (online), on our YouTube channel.
It was great to play for you again after two months of lockdown! Our last concert was filmed by three cameras and the sound was very good. We played two brand new songs for you and a few of our ‘golden oldies.’ And of course a few songs from our regular repertoire. This time we had extra keys, with several sounds, and a real Minimoog synthesizer! People who missed it can watch the concert here:
Within six weeks, on Sunday, May 16 we will play live for you again with our next livestream concert.
Last weekend was quite busy. On Saturday we went to Kofa Vlaardingen for a photoshoot for the Cancelled, by Anoek photobook and expo. Photographer Anoek van Nunen makes this book about artists who can’t play live during the lockdown in Holland. If you would like to buy this book in advance, then go to this website.

After the photoshoot we did a videoshoot for our new music video. Our new single ‘Beyond the Tides’ is due to be released in June, with a music video. Underneath you see a few pictures, taken on the set.
On March 28 we’ll finally be able to give a free livestream concert again on our YouTube channel! We’ll start on 5 PM CET (Dutch time). We’re looking forward to this. Don’t miss it! We missed playing live very much.

Due to the prolonged, strict lockdown measures, ordered by our government, we unfortunately have to postpone our next livestream concert again, from February 28 to Sunday late afternoon March 28, 5 PM CET (Dutch time). We’re looking forward to play live for you again. In the mean time we’re working on our next single release, called ‘Beyond the tides.’
Due to the new, stricter lockdown rules, just ordered by our government, we’re not able to rehearse or give concerts for a few weeks. That’s why we rescheduled our livestream concert date from January the 31th to February the 28th. That’s a pity, but necessary in the battle against the virus. Luckily we’re still able to record, edit and mix our new, upcoming single of ‘Beyond the Tides’, partly online. On top of that we have weekly zoom sessions with the whole band.

We start this year during the lockdown with two livestream events. The first is this Friday, January the 15th. A live version of our new ‘Beyond the tides’ song will be streamed on the Streamsonic Festival, a streaming festival as a part of the Eurosonic-Noorderslag festival. The entrance to Streamsonic is totally free of charge. Chabliz will be streamed between 10.36 PM CET and 10.41 PM CET (22.36 – 22.40), that’s only four minutes of your time, so be on time, otherwise the next band is already streaming…… That being said, we advise you to tune in earlier and stay longer afterwards, because there are also many other interesting bands streaming. Our ‘Beyond the tides’ song is a song of hope and fear. We subtitled the video with the lyrics.
On Sunday evening the 31th of January Chabliz will give another free, online livestream concert. This time somewhat shorter than you’re used to. With two world premieres with brand new songs, and an old song that we didn’t play live for almost ten years. We improved our performance again, this time we have coloured lights and three camera’s instead of just one! The concert starts on 9 PM CET (21.00). There’s a small chance that Holland will get a curfew too, just like several other European countries. If that will be the case, then our concert will start on 5 PM CET (17.00). We’ll let you know. Tune in on our YouTube channel, as always, to watch the livestream concert.
