Loupe

Amsterdam indie rock quartet Loupe has the odd gift of sounding thrilling and alarming within the same instant. The band’s singer and lyricist Julia (vocals/keys – she/her) explores themes of young adulthood, life in the big city and human relationships over a weave of rousing harmonies, free-flowing rhythms and expressive vocals.

Besides Julia, the band consists of Jasmine (guitar – they/them, Lana (bass – she/her) and Annemarie (drums – she/her). Everything immediately fell into place with the critically acclaimed first single “Leave Me There”, which sparked the band’s initial notoriety. Over the past two years, Loupe has steadily risen to new heights with the EPs Older (2021) and Spring '19 (2022). This earned the band a growing reputation as a stage act with memorable shows at various marquee showcase festivals. Loupe also performed support shows for indie favorites such as Porridge Radio and Moss.

The band’s forthcoming debut Do You Ever Wonder What Comes Next? was recorded with producer Arne van Petegem (Moss, Styrofoam) and mixed by Beau Sorenson (Death Cab For Cutie, Sparklehorse).
