A few weeks ago, the website crashed. Nothing to be done, except… design a new one. So I did. Luckily I was planning on creating a new look for TheInfluences.com anyway. It just happened a bit earlier than I’d thought. So, here it is! This is basically a beta-version, not all the posts have been adapted to the new template yet. And some things might still change. But all the sessions are available and ready for you to watch.

And I didn’t want to wait any longer. So consider yourself an early bird, a beta tester, one of the lucky few – or whatever makes you feel good.

It would be incredible if you could support The Influences:
– share your favourite sessions
– follow on Instagram or Twitter
– subscribe on YouTube
– subscribe to the newsletter

Thank you so much,
Matthijs

To celebrate this unofficial early launch, there’s a brand new session available. With one of the best bands The Netherlands have ever seen. They’ve been extremely welcome guests on this website and our live shows on multiple occasions – since filming their first The Influences session back in 2008. Let’s not wait any longer. Watch their covers of The Cure and Paul Simon, as well as two of their original songs.
