Digging Deeper at ADE with andhim
I meet andhim inside their hotel lobby on a cloudy afternoon. ADE has already begun and the boys are looking a little bit tired from their event the night before, a hybrid dinner-turned-into-party affair that kept them awake until early morning. Despite this, their spirits are high and they’re as talkative and approachable as ever.
We step outside the lobby and sit down by the river overlooking Oeverpark and the docks on the left and Amsterdam Centraal and the rest of the city on the other. We opt to do the interview alfresco without really explaining why. All three of us could do with some fresh air and the backdrop available isn’t too shabby either. It helps that Amsterdam is in the midst of some kind of heat wave during ADE week this year, just like the rest of mainland Europe.
Simon and Tobias are as busy as ever, pushing their own releases on their Superfriends label (their latest is the recent Huso EP), touring practically every weekend of the year and always working on exciting projects, the latest of which is the release of their very own Dragon Brew – Super Kölsch style ale in collaboration with Pipeworks Brewing Co. in Chicago. Find full information on the beer at the end of the article.
