The time has come: the long awaited debut album of The Vagary has arrived! Of course there was a big release party to celebrate their first milestone on vinyl. And of course we were there to make a rockin’ live video! We went to the fully packed Bitterzoet to shoot the intimate track They Say She’s Still Asleep.

The dark indierock of The Vagary has been keeping music-loving Holland busy since 2011. It is one of the most talked about bands of today. Somewhat of an accomplishment because apart from several successful singles, of which Time Machine got the most airplay, we have had to wait quite some time for their first full album. Luckily their debut album named Salute underlines the band’s relevance. They have also shown to know how to make good music videos. The cocktail of catchy songs and their energetic performance on stage will not bore us any time soon!

The band is led by the charming Thijs Havens, who is the singer and musical brain behind this slick and stylish quartet. All songs on the debut album Salute are of his making. Oh wait, there is also a song from Rod Stewart on there; Young Turks, excellent pick!
