Song for the Double minded is Grenadeers last single of their monthly streak, in which they released a new song every four weeks, for a whole year! Song for the Double Minded is a love song, but it’s full of doubt. It’s also an ode to people who are always having a hard time making decisions, because they can see the benefits in all their options.

Here it is! Yet a new song and video but this time with a bit of a heavier subject. ’Until Snowbreak’ is inspired by the documentary ‘Winter on Fire’, which is about the unrest in the Ukraine in 2013, when millions of people united to support European integration. The hopelessness and terror people felt, but also the feeling of power they experienced when united, were to inspire ‘Until Snowbreak’.
For the video the band decided to work together with visual artist Domas van Wijk. Domas is well on his way to become a constant force in the dutch art community, with exhibitions all over the country. For this video Domas made an installation with plasma globes and striplights. He discovered something amazing: even though the striplights are not connected, the electric glow of the plasma globe makes them light up! Then Domas took this even further by triggering the plasma globe with sound taken from the song! Amazing, right?!

Here is our first single of 2019! ‘Trip Switch’ is part of a monthly streak, in which we release a new song every four weeks! This heavy alternative, yet quite a danceable song, is about the struggles of being an introvert in an extraverted world. In the video accompanying ‘Trip Switch’ we see Guy Pek, Grenadeers’ drummer and songwriter, staring into the camera while being distracted in many ways, including but not limited to throwing food at him and covering him in soft drinks. Shot in one take, this video represents the often ridiculous distractions of the outer world and the way this introverted individual decides to deal with them: by doing nothing and trying not to laugh.

Biography
Grenadeers, formed in 2015, consists of five men with love for anything raw. Or in their own words: ”Our take on rock’n roll sounds like the love baby of Robert Fripp and Josh Homme playing in an empty trashcan in a deserted alley of Oldtown Sin City, while he’s doing just fine.” The band, led by drummer and songwriter Guy Pek, tends to play angular riffs which contrast sharply with the dragging vocals from frontman Siep van Rijswijk.
Their debut EP, as wel as their first full length record ‘How to Fit In’ were mixed by none other than Alain Johannes (Queens Of The Stone Age / Them Crooked Vultures). From their latest record, ‘Out With It and Without It’, was played on Dutch radio 3FM and featured at heavy music website Never Mind the Hype. Their single ‘Gird’ was featured in popular Spotify playlists such as ‘All New Rock’ and ‘Rock United’. ‘How to Fit In’ also caught the attention from magazines, and got reviews in Classic Rock Magazine, Fireworks Magazine and many others.
In the past, Grenadeers participated in dutch national band competition ‘Grote Prijs van Nederland’. They also played with dutch traveling festival ‘Popronde’ in 2016 and 2019, during Eurosonic Noorderslag 2019 in Groningen and they played support shows for Karma to Burn and The Smashing Pumpkins. At the beginning of January 2019, the band performed in an experimental setting with the dutch Jazz Orchestra of the concertgebouw, which will also be made into a mini-documentary.
In the summer of 2019 the band released a live EP called ‘Live Wires’, and also recorded a new EP, coming out in 2020!
