Clean Pete - Gloria
Clean Pete pulls out all the stops on Dutch-language Indie Christmas album Gloria.
It is well known that Clean Pete has an endless fascination for Christmas. The twin sisters Loes and Renée Wijnhoven have released a Christmas single every year and crowned that last year with a very first Christmas show in a sold-out Doornroosje in Nijmegen. The Christmas fever turned out to be of longer duration and that eventually resulted in a grand Christmas album; Gloria.
On the album, which will be released on November 15, Clean Pete - just like at their Christmas shows - pulls out all the stops with many special guests. Songs about longing, broken hearts and impending break ups, but always with Christmas as a red-green thread.
In short, this first Dutch-language Indie Christmas record goes in all directions. One moment you feel like sitting in front of that crackling fire with your loved one, the next moment the remains of the Christmas tree are smoldering in that same fire and that sweetheart is nowhere to be seen.
Clean Pete will be playing on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 December with a selection of special guests in Doornroosje Nijmegen and TivoliVredenburg Utrecht respectively. Tickets are now available in presale.
