Electricloud Recordings: Behind The Scenes Ep 19: Introducing Madelief Baak
Somewhere along the canals of Amsterdam, you have likely experienced bicycles everywhere, old world charm, cobblestone, the suffix "straat", and the soul of Madelief Baak. Â A self-taught guitarist, and self-proclaimed miscreant, Baak has been busking on the city streets since she was 11. Â Now in her 20s, she is a regular sight in some parts of town, including Rijksmuseum, Vondelpark, and the red light district. Â Though choosing to stay out of cafes or bars, where her music might be more appreciated by aficionados than her preferred audience of passersby, she has gained a significant following in Europe, and through a combination of luck and many appeals, will be releasing an EP on Electricloud Recordings in the near future.
