"Scouse heartache at its very best." - Word Magazine
Liverpool band Amsterdam are currently recording their third album at Charlton Farm studios home to CIA records who also boast The Stranglers and The Bluetones on thier roster.
"Soaring melodic music." - Q Magazine
The band are aiming to better 2008 which saw them duet with Elvis Costello on EMI Records, play Glastonbury and release their second album 'Arm in Arm' which ended up being voted 14th best ever album out of Liverpool by the local press which, when you consider the Beatles released ten, is some feat!
"Full of superb material, the perfect musical formula." - Belfast Telegraph
The band's most famous song 'Does This Train Stop on Merseyside?' (their previous single 'The Journey' hit number 32 in the UK charts) was John Peel's second favourite song, and John would regularly be too emotional to speak on the radio after playing it. It got got a further lease of life as one of the centre-peices of Irish legend Christy Moore's latest album which spent five weeks at the top spot in his home country.
"Rammed with memorable melodies, a tear in the eye and a smile on the face." - Rock and Reel Mag
The gang have also performed live four times for Janice Long on her BBC 2 show. Ian Prowse - the engine room of Amsterdam - also enjoyed previous success in the 1990s with his band Pele who recorded three albums for Polydor/M&G.
"The best songs of Ian Prowse's career." - Liverpool.com
Amsterdam are a riot of a six-peice band whose real forte is in the live arena.
