L.A. Sagne
L.A. SAGNE. It fizzes, it screams, it holds dear, and when it starts, it makes
everything move.
Are you still allowed to say in an official biography that a band is just a group of
friends? No. But also you don’t need to. You can hear it in every song. Friends? Yes.
but the kind you wouldn’t want showing up unannounced at your mom’s birthday
party.
How they met is none of your business. Just be glad they did.
Or not, if you don’t like punk.
Anyway! 2025 was a good year for L.A. Sagne. Eurosonic/Noorderslag, Best Kept
Secret, a club tour in the Netherlands and Belgium and many other Dutch festivals all
got what they deserved. Three booking agencies (Friendly Fire – NL, Live Nation –
BE, and Persona Grata – FR) joined in. And as you read this, the band is recording
their debut album, set for release in April 2026. In December, they’ll be taking their
first steps into France playing at Trans Musicales Festival in Rennes.
With the bands latest single ‘I’m a Girl’, L.A. Sagne wipes the floor with your
expectations. It dropkicks them into a kiddie pool filled with glitter and existential
dread. It’s the kind of track that will probably have you end up dancing, badly, with
your friends in someone’s kitchen at an hour when you should’ve gone home but
didn’t. And you’ll love it for that.
L.A. Sagne’s upcoming single ’I Paint Walls’ is a melodic punk anthem about the
dreams you have and the job you hate. It’s tough and honest. Moody and humorous.
And you will want to shout along to the chorus.
The song will be out on November 28th on Geertruida Records.
Well, well. Go on then. Chug that drink and dive in.
