about

New Album by Groningen-based Dutch indieband

The Tranquis - Sandcastles

Some years after their well-received albums DUDUDU and Mare Tranquilitatis,
The Tranquis now present their latest record: Sandcastles

Tranquis' songs still convey that same lack of pretense, characterized by a parsimonious use of instruments and straightforward composition, but rich in melody, sensitivity and scope.

A childhood memory (Urinals), a remarkable detail in a humdrum existence (Nap), a general consideration about current state of affairs (Ambition), decay and loss (Stains, Sandcastles), it is all palpable in The Tranquis' Sandcastles.

Sandcastles is released by Platex Records, an indielabel from Groningen.
