Labasheeda was formed in 2004 by singer/guitarist Saskia van der Giessen, an their are based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Labasheeda blends poppy melodies with bursts of noise and distorted violin. Labasheeda is known for working with non-standard pop structures, changing instruments such as baritone guitar, electric violin and working with “sound” within their songs. After the release of their well-received first record Charity Box (2006), bassist David Jackson left the band, while Arne Wolfswinkel joined as a second guitar player.
