Nation of Language bring their acclaimed live show to den Atelier on June 17th, and RTL Today Radio has a pair of tickets up for grabs.
Over the past decade, the Brooklyn trio have quietly become one of the most respected bands in alternative music. Drawing inspiration from synth-pop pioneers like OMD, Kraftwerk and New Order, Nation of Language have crafted a sound that feels nostalgic yet still original.
Fronted by Ian Richard Devaney, alongside Aidan Noell and Alex MacKay, the band first emerged in 2016 and quickly gained attention for their ability to combine vintage electronic textures with heartfelt songwriting and undeniable hooks.
Their breakthrough came with 2020's Introduction, Presence, before follow-up albums A Way Forward and Strange Disciple elevated them to cult status among indie and electronic music fans. In 2023, Strange Disciple was named Rough Trade's Album of the Year, cementing the band's reputation as one of the most exciting acts in contemporary alternative music.
Last year saw the release of their fourth album, Dance Called Memory, a record that continued to push their sound forward while retaining the emotional depth and shimmering synth work that fans have come to love.
Live, Nation of Language are renowned for transforming intimate venues into euphoric dancefloors, delivering performances that balance melancholy, romance and pure electronic energy.
Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering them for the first time, this promises to be one of the standout alternative shows of the summer.
RTL Today Radio has a pair of tickets to give away.
