New single and EP: Kids (RIP)

Orange Glow single cover 'Kids (RIP)'

Our new single and EP Kids (RIP) is out now on all streaming platforms. This is the 4th single in our seasonal series, leading up to the release of our new album. After Winter (Dark Horse), Spring (Ms. Captain) and Summer (Arizona), this one marks the Autumn — and we’re getting close…

Kids (RIP) is a sad but tender autumn song, about a special girl I wish I had known better when we were just kids.
Many thanks to Jonas Pap for the beautiful cello once again.

Take care, stay strong.
Eric

Back from 2004: our first single ‘Sunken’

Orange Glow - 'Sunken' single cover.

It took a while, but our very first single ‘Sunken’ (from way back in 2004) has finally made it online 🎈 Bouncy indie rock from when we were still puppies. You can listen exclusively on our Bandcamp page. Enjoy this little side treat. And the bunny.

From the days of our very first four-piece lineup: André Witteveen (keys), Dick Kroes (bass), Jan Hoogeweg (drums) + Eric (guitar & vocals). Recorded by Corno Zwetsloot, mastered by Zlaya 🙏🏼

Summer single and EP: Arizona

Arizona EP cover

Our new single and EP Arizona is out now on all streaming platforms. The first full-band single from the upcoming album. So drummer Marc and bass player Han join me on this one!

The song Arizona was inspired by the turmoil surrounding the U.S. presidential elections and the same struggle for power that once dispossessed Native Americans of their land.

After this summer release, the next single will be out on October 1 (Fall). Followed by a new album, early 2026. Cheers! Eric

Spring single: Ms. Captain

The new single Ms. Captain is out now on all streaming platforms. A gentle indie pop track with piano by Demi Mazurka (previously in Mercy Giants).

It’s about a magical meeting of souls, unfolding your mind like a dancer. It’s the 2nd of 4 singles, all related to another season. Great thanks to Annelies Fleskens (female voice) for singing with me again 🙏🏼

After this Spring song the next singles will be released on June 1 (Summer) and October 1 (Fall). Followed by a full album.

Winter single: Dark Horse

Our new single Dark Horse is out now on all streaming platforms. It’s an intimate, warm winter song with acoustic guitar, cello and two vocals. It’s the first of 4 new singles, all related to another season.

Great thanks to Jonas Pap (cello) and Annelies Fleskens (female voice) for their great help on this song.

The next season singles will be released on March 1 (Spring), June 1 (Summer) and October 1 2025 (Fall). Followed by a full album late 2025.

New EP ‘Old Songs’

New EP Old Songs bij Orange Glow.

Our new EP ‘Old Songs’ is out now. Including the single ‘Sweet ’n Low’. Listen here and on all streaming platforms.

With this EP Orange Glow returns to the more intimate lo-fi indie songs of the debut album. Two of the older songs did not fit on the first two albums, but still deserved a place for themselves. Another song was on the debut album, but I think it was a bit too fast. So this is a new version.

In 2024 real new songs will be released, also more intimate indie songs again. Cheers! Eric

Orange Glow + Red Uzum

Orange Glow and Red Uzum recordings

Busy times here. Becuz there are TWO bands now! With Orange Glow I focus more on the songs and my indie (lo-fi) roots again. With the help of the band and others. An EP is on its way and a full album will follow.

The real band stuff is fully from the 3 of us (since bass player Han joined Marc & me). This evolved more and more to elusive kraut- & postrock. Less songs, more trippy adventures. This deserves a new name now: Red Uzum. Website and recordings will follow.

Stay tuned.
Cheers!

Eric
