Lucassen & Soeterboek’s Plan Nine - Before The Morning Comes (Official Music Video)

Official music video for Before The Morning Comes, the first track released on Lucassen & Soeterboek’s Plan Nine album aptly named “The Long-Lost Songs“. As Robert and I sifted through our 30-year-old cassette tapes containing our demos, we stumbled upon a bluesy, unfinished piece featuring just my guitar and Robert’s voice. I had completely forgotten about it, but felt it had the potential to be something special. I’m glad we pursued it, because it turned out to be one of the album’s highlights! Robert was actually quite ill when he recorded it, the raw pain in his voice is palpable, but that really works for this the positive reception from everyone we played the song for, we chose this track as the first single and the basis for our video clip. The concept is straightforward: a sleazy, smoky bar with a band performing, surrounded by a crowd of utterly disinterested people, essentially ignoring the band. And what an exceptional band it is – I’m incredibly proud of these musicians! And yes, those are indeed Lynyrd Skynyrd and Jimi Hendrix posters on the wall – that’s no coincidence! Hope you enjoy,! Arjen and Robert You have the opportunity to attend the release show of Plan Nine at Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer, Netherlands.
