Dutch indie quartet Pip Blom are returning to Reading next year in support of their album ‘Bobbie’ which is out on October 20th via Heavenly Recordings.

For her third album, ‘Bobbie’, Dutch singer-songwriter Pip Blom decided to rip it up and start again. After making her name as one of the brightest indie rock singers around through two albums – 2019 debut ‘Boat’ and 2021 follow-up ‘Welcome Break’ – and a lauded live show honed over gruelling years of touring, the new album sees her take a delightful left turn into a thumping, carefree synth-pop.

Their new 12-track album includes Blom’s partner and vocalist of fellow Dutch indie band Personal Trainer, Willem Smita and Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand.

We can’t wait to hear these new songs alongside their other infectious songs at Sub89.
