The name says it all. Rootsclub. An Amsterdam based band that explores the rich tradition of American roots music and that creates something new and special along the way. Their debut album proves it in a glorious way. You don't have to live in Texas to be a Texan. If you catch our drift. The nine piece band that is central to Rootsclub has become a well oiled musical machine, a monster in its own right. More and more they also play outside Maloe Melo. They can be seen and heard at the prestigious Crossing Border Festival, together with writer Jan van Mersbergen, the yearly April party at the Nieuwmarkt. De Hartjesdagen, Bam vol Kunsten in Bergen, Bevrijdingfestival in Amsterdam Oost, Straatfestival in Hooge Zwaluwe (Brabant), Stars and Bars in Delft. Every show is a party.
