The Amsterdam group Pip Blom began as the solo project of the band's namesake, making intimate bedroom pop inspired by the lo-fi indie rock of the 1990s. When she expanded the band to become a quartet, their sound grew more powerful without losing that home-cooked feel. Their first two albums, 2019's Boat and 2021's Welcome Break, also showed a deep love and understanding for the hooky, punchy sounds of '90s alt-rock.
