Amsterdam has an insane amount of very good music recorded, and not released. Fortunately he’s getting ready to let the rest of the world listen to it soon.
He and Goodwill are getting into the studio this Saturday to finish their album “Earth & Sky.” The album will be released for free via the interwebs this Summer.
Thanks for the time to answer the questions!
And Everyone enjoy the single.
My Name is… Amsterdam aka Gabriel Jeremaiah van Eikeren.
I am… One-half of super-group Top Shelf and an aspiring singer/swinger/songwriter from Bend, OR.
I like it when…. The Celtics win, Mad Men is in season, whatever bar I’m at carries Pacifico, new beats from Goodwill & Terminill are in my email, Espi is in the mood to drink, no women are blowing up my phone, bills are paid and another studio session is booked, my girl’s got a girlfriend, I wake up to champagne and french toast.
One thing I wish the Northwest would share with the world is… Beautiful, engaging women. No area has more smiles per capita, of this I’m sure.

One thing I wish the world would share with the Northwest is… Sunshine, maybe a natural disaster or two.
Something I have coming up is… I actually have two brand-new solo records ready to drop. The first is a collaborative album with producer Goodwill called Earth & Sky, which will be available online for free very soon. I will then be releasing the follow-up Its Not You Its Me on Itunes and all that.
This is exciting because… I feel like I’ve really come into my own as an artist over the last couple years and I’m incredibly confident in the new material. I think a premium should be put on originality and I can’t quite put into words how excited I am for everyone to hear what I’ve been working on. The fact that Earth & Sky will be available for free should encourage people to listen even if they’re not familiar with my earlier works.

One thing I wish the Northwest would share with the world is… our delightful greenery
One thing I wish the world would share with the Northwest is… I’d like the rest of the world to share their ears with us. once they listen to the talent out here we’re on.
Something I have coming up is… Amsterdam x Goodwill ‘Earth & Sky’ LP and it will be free for everyone online in a couple months. Sole Provider x Goodwill ‘Scheme-Work’ LP is also in the works looking to get released later this year or early next.
This is exciting because…These are my first projects thus far and I’m putting a lot of work into them. Both are turning out great so far. I’m looking forward to sharing the music with the rest of the world soon.
