Ian Patterson – All About Jazz 04 2022  .Unusual, spiritual and expressive music that is irresistible. A wonderful album! J. Brun, jazzfun 03 2022. "Miin Triuwa – I am true", fascinates from the first moment, draws every second the listeners more under its spell. Great! G. Kösters, Na Dann 03 2022. A sparse-floating listening experience between jazz, folk, ehno and electronic music. Tip. B. Lorcher, In Music 04 2022 Line up Sanne Rambags – vocals / lyrics Bram Stadhouders – guitars / compositions  Joost Lijbaart – drums  Lennart Heyndels – bass Annabel Laura – vocals, guitar, keyboard, percussion, lyra Improvisation, composition, language and culture meet, merge and influence each other. Under The Surface knows no boundaries. On their extraordinary third album, the group reflects on their own background and finds their own “folk”. Under The Surface was formed in 2015 and since then the band has enjoyed a great deal of international success. Drummer Joost Lijbaart recognized the group’s potential early on and organized more than 200 concerts in 25 countries on 4 continents: from Africa to South America, Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Their concerts were fully improvised. Inspired by their many travels and the cultures they encountered, the group developed a unique improvisation language that combines jazz, folk, ethnic and electronic music. After the group’s first two completely free-improvisation trio albums, Under The Surface (2017) and Trinity (2019), both nominated for an Edison, the next step for Under The Surface is a fully composed album: Miin Triuwa. With Miin Triuwa, Under The Surface embarks on a new musical journey with compositions by guitarist Bram Stadhouders. He wrote a suite of eight pieces in which the characters and qualities of the band members are transcendent. The constantly changing improvisations that are so characteristic of the band are now captured in a powerful musical statement that showcases what the band stands for. Instead of traveling to other worlds, in this project the group looks inward and explores how their own roots influence their music. Under The Surface has a common drive to find the universal essence of different cultures. Thus, for this album vocalist Sanne Rambags wrote lyrics in the band’s own “forgotten” language, Old Dutch. A 1000 year old medieval langugaue in sound similar to Icelandic and Gaelic. Miin Triuwa is performed as a quintet with two extra musicians on bass and guitar / vocals. https://triounderthesurface.com/
