Lorena + The Tide

Lorena + The Tide is a Dutch indie pop/rock band that makes radiofriendly music with an alternative edge and a DIY-attitude. In March 2022, the band released their debut album “Open Sea”, consisting of 8 songs about friendship, moving on and how life is an open sea of possibilities, in which it is sometimes hard not to drown, but you can learn how to surf the waves.

To promote the release of the album, Lorena + The Tide embarked on a festival tour through the Netherlands over the summer of 2022, concluding with a semi-acoustic UK tour, visiting venues such as The Half Moon (London) and the Cavern Pub (Liverpool), in August.

In May 2023, the band released the Surfer Mixtape, a summery double single which takes you back to Malibu in the time of mixtapes and plaid shirts. “Surfer: The Short Film” was released online to accompany the songs and dive into their story of growing up and carving your own path.

Following the release of the Surfer Mixtape, Lorena + The Tide organised The Surfer Tour, which comprised of a dozen tourdates in the Netherlands and the UK. During this time, they also played aftershows for Hozier (Amsterdam) and Wild Rivers (Utrecht).

The band started 2024 with the release of their acoustic live EP "Unplugged" and ended the year with another tour through the UK.

In 2025, the band started recording their sophomore album (set for release in 2026).
