Remy van Kesteren ft. Cape Sleep: Closing Time

Dutch harpist Remy van Kesteren wrote the music for Closing Time in 2019, but he felt that something was missing. Kim Janssen (Cape Sleep) helped him out writing the lyrics and handling the vocals and they performed live in 2022, but now all the dots are connected with the cellos of the Metropole Orchestra and backing vocals by singer Tessa Douwstra. When a track has been on the backburner for so long, overthinking and overproducing are not uncommon, but it sounds like it was recorded in the round in a single take. Melancholy captured flawlessly by producer Wannes Salomé.

He will be on tour in The Netherlands, hitting the clubs with indie band Cape Sleep members Kim Janssen and Robin Kester. The full band also includes Wannes Salomé (keys) en Annemarie van den Born (drums).

Live dates:
  • 12/06 LantarenVenster, Rotterdam, Netherlands
  • 12/13 Zonnehuis, Amsterdam, Netherlands
  • 12/15 SPOT, Groningen, Netherlands
  • 12/18 TivoliVredenburg, Utrecht, Netherlands
  • 12/19 Doornroosje, Nijmegen, Netherlands
