9 PM – Dolly Min

10 PM – Ego Dreams LP Release Show

Dolly Min

Dolly Min is a punk band from The Hague. Their sound is raw, energetic, driven by catchy hooks
and a clear sense of purpose.
With the EP Girls Bite Back Pt. 1, Dolly Min made their stance unmistakably clear in one bold
move. The release earned them the Pop Award for Best Hague Release of 2025.
They previously supported Pussy Riot in the main hall of PAARD, where they convincingly proved
that their explosive energy translates just as powerfully to a large stage.

Ego Dreams

It’s always a crisis at Ego Dreams. No money, collapsing relationships, receding hairlines—the garage punks from Amersfoort have enough material to fill an album, so they did exactly that. After two EPs, the recipe for their self-titled debut Ego Dreams remains unchanged: every song was written in under fifteen minutes, almost none last longer than two minutes, and the whole thing channels the spirit of Fidlar, Descendents, Bad Nerves, and a massive shot of raw energy.

Joris Postulart (guitar/vocals), Arthur van Vliet (bass/vocals), and Thom Heusinkveld (drums) have been unleashing that energy on stages across the Netherlands since 2015. Ego Dreams has torn through Sleazefest, Popronde, and Club 3voor12, played everything from the legendary Vera to the sleaziest underground venues, and gave their new LP its live premiere to a packed Paardcafé at Sniester 2025. Twenty songs in half an hour—an Ego Dreams show is a sprint, not a marathon.

Somewhere between sweaty shows, shared kitchen tables and side jobs, the Amsterdam
punk band L.A. Sagne came to life. Four friends and a stack of demos on a crashing
computer at the edge of the city grew into a rock-solid band, with music as something to hold
onto in hard times. Their debut album Good Company is exactly that: the hand that pulls you
into the moshpit and helps you back up when you fall. After two EPs and a long run of festival
shows including Best Kept Secret, Paaspop, Wilde Weide, Wildeburg, Eurosonic
Noorderslag and Trans Musicales, their debut album Good Company was released on March
27, 2026 via Geertruida.

Good Company shows that punk does not always have to be angry. The album did not come
from big plans or distant ideals, but from a lively free space on Zuiderzeeweg, somewhere
near the top of the demolition list of the municipality of Amsterdam. Singer Tara Wilts: “This
record came out of a time when everything felt unstable: being forced out of housing, losing
work, debt, a future that keeps becoming more unaffordable — while trying to hold onto a
creative life at the same time.” With this album, L.A. Sagne makes a direct statement against
exclusion and loneliness in a world that is scary, but where doing nothing feels even scarier.
A collection of punk manifestos about generational frustration, community, dreams that feel
out of reach, failing systems, intense love, and sometimes simply the need to not think about
any of it for a while.
