Biography

The Visual founded by singer/songwriter Amor van Rij, are known for their emotive songs and intricate atmospherics; their music has been compared to artists as diverse as Nick Cave, Jeff Buckley, Wolf Alice and The Doors. Debut Moments Of Being was a stunning, introspective record that documented Van Rij’s cathartic soul-search for freedom, identity and wholeness. On upcoming third album A Night By The Shore, out November 11, The Visual has left struggle in the rear view. Like a rapidly flourishing, snaking network of vines, this collection of recordings finds lead songwriter/producer Amor van Rij enraptured with existence and all its innate complexities. The shadow of melancholy makes way for courting more exhilarating unknowns. Recording at Pieterjan Coppejans (Eefje de Visser, Sylvie Kreusch) Robot Studios in Ghent, A Night By The Shore captures a newfangled balance between pop and experimentation. Having toured extensively with the lineup of Timon Persoon (synths/ electronics), Django Trienes (guitars/effects) and Christophe Claeys (drums/percussion), Amor sets her sights on capturing the live chemistry built over time in the songs. Darrell Thorp mixed the album.
