Labasheeda

Labasheeda is an idiosyncratic rock trio from Amsterdam. The band is known for its dynamic and intense shows. Labasheeda’s music has a penchant for concise, stripped down melodies, and quick switches from spacious bass lines and drums to heavy, rousing or sometimes epic guitar driven songs. The unorthodox use of violin, the often deviating time signatures and Saskia van der Giessen’s distinctive voice give the band its unique sound.

 In November 2023 Labasheeda released its sixth full-length album Blueprints, which has been described as an innovative post-punk masterpiece by the international press.

“It’s just at the point where rock and roll tips over into noise, where melody turns into sonic soundscaping and where song structure becomes untethered and unruly, that you find Labasheeda”  (The Big Takeover, NY)
