Blues rock from the south

Solid blues rock from Maastricht, Netherlands. The band plays exclusively their own work from their years of accumulated repertoire, to be heard on the band's 5 albums released by various small and large music labels such as Polydor, Phonogram, and the Swedish  GMR record label. The band has spent the last two years working on a new album to be released this fall. 

The band has played in many large and small festivals and clubs, such as the Belgium Rhythm and Blues Festival in Peer and Rock Herk in Belgium, Djurs Bluesland in Denmark, as well as many festivals in the Netherlands, such as the Bluesrock festival in Tegelen, Netherlands (2X), the Southern Blues Night in Heerlen, Zoetermeer Blues, Rock tussen de Dijken in Tiel, the Bluesroute in Helmond, Bluesfestival Delft and Paasblues in Asten.

Albums

In 2020, the 4th album "Troubled Mind" was nominated as best Blues CD in the Netherlands, finishing in the top 3 best blues albums released in 2020. In 2021, the 5th album was released "Waitin'" on the Swedish record label GMR Music. The albums have been listened to more than 310,000 times on Spotify, the videos have been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on Facebook and Youtube. The band now has a loyal following of nearly 3,000 on Spotify and welcomes thousands of listeners to The Liberators' music every month on this platform.

The Liberators' music is best described as solid blues-rock music with a clear link to the basis of contemporary popular music, the roots, but not in a traditional straitjacket. The band combines contemporary styles with roots. Not only the past, the origins are important to the band, also the future of blues and rock music.

Sabbatical - documentary

The band was followed on camera for a year by documentary filmmaker Karin Hillebrand which resulted in the documentary "Sabbatical", a beautiful portrait of a band and all its besognes. Extremely recognizable for fellow musicians and therefore very entertaining. aired on Dutch television, but still available online on this website.

So.....

The band's music is rooted in its roots: jazz, blues, rock 'n roll and other original musical styles. An element from each style is taken and combined and infused with a hearty blues-rock sauce. As a result, The Liberators is not a traditional blues cover band, but is influenced by rich music history and gives the blues a new, solid style of its own. Visitors to concerts praise the energy the band exudes and their own spin on traditional music.
