Lost by Mr Richard

released April 2, 2013

Mr Richard is a four piece acoustic band fromThe Netherlands. The band is situated around the vocals and songs of brother and sister Geertje and Teake Damstra; supported by Anne de Vries on double bass and backing vocals, and Peter Kuipers on various instruments.

Take whatever stage you can get! After two years of writing, learning, playing and rewriting Mr Richard decided that the best way to learn the works is to simply jump in. A strong variety of stages taught Mr Richard that the audience attention does not come for free. Mr Richards’ no bullshit acoustic music is highly personal and not easy to ignore. In exchange to sing their hearts out they almost demand their audience’s full attention. Something they became quite known for, and frankly, quite good at in these past couple of years.

In the fall of 2011 Mr Richard recorded a DEMO to give away for free at gigs and on their website. At the end of 2012 Mr Richard recorded their first official EP: 'Lost'. Lost is released at april 2nd 2013.
