a blend of punk, jazz, D&B, and Mediterranean-influenced sounds
AMAGUK is a dedicated and ambitious power trio, driven by their shared passion for creating innovative music. Their style is a seamless blend of punk, jazz, D&B and Mediterranean influences. Inimitable and unique, somewhere between King Crimson, Jojo Mayer and Black Midi. The band members, originally from Spain, Italy and Greece, currently live in Rotterdam.
AMAGUK is a one-of-a-kind band that sets itself apart from the rest by doing things differently. The main distinguishing feature of the band is the lack of a bass player. An unconventional set-up made possible by the modifications on their instruments that allow them to alternate between the bassist and the bassist. This, combined with a deep understanding of effects and electronics, allows them to be more experimental and free with their compositions, resulting in a unique sound.
In 2019 they released their first EP Amaguk and in 2021 their first album Resilient Forest which they presented with beautiful merchandise. In May 2023 the band will release Xenitia , a live recorded EP, and by the end of the year they will be ready to record their second album.
This new work is highly anticipated and will certainly show their continued growth and evolution as a band. Over the last years they have toured extensively in London, Spain, Greece, Berlin and the Netherlands and have performed at important international festivals such as North Sea Jazz, WOMAD, or Music Meeting and many more.
