What does a forest fire have to do with the cover of Supersister's debut LP? Was it a good idea to turn the cover of Pudding and Gisteren into a kind of cut-out model? And how does a cover enhance (or weaken...) the music?
These are questions that our own album cover expert, Gerrit-Jan Vrielink, is preoccupied with. Robert Jan Stips, musician, composer, producer, and above all, the driving force behind Supersister, will provide the answers. Gerrit-Jan and Robert Jan will take the audience on a journey through over fifty years of pop music and album cover history, based on the bands Stips played in. From Supersister, via Golden Earring, Sweet d'Buster, and Gruppo Sportivo, to The Nits. So it's about Chopin, Soft Machine, photographer Anton Corbijn, and Nits frontman Henk Hofstede. An afternoon full of stories, anecdotes, revelations, music clips, and live performances by Robert Jan Stips, PLUS an extra special appearance with singer Jane Goulding from his latest project, StipsGoulding.
