GLITTERPAARD

Takes you back to the golden days of indie

Friday 30 January 2026

The Belgian supergroup Glitterpaard was born in 2022 as a tribute to Mark Linkous, also known as Sparklehorse, who met a tragic end. What began as a one-time homage soon evolved into a band creating its own original music, while keeping the name as a respectful nod to it’s inspiration. With their second album now in hand, the band has repeatedly proven their ability to capture that same emotional depth, presenting melancholic indie with a delicate touch. On their latest record, Thursday, the five-piece once again delves deep, effortlessly blending their diverse backgrounds into a mature, richly layered sound. Catch them live on January 30 in the Kleine Zaal.

It’s no coincidence that Glitterpaard is called a supergroup, the band features members from Millionaire, Marble Sounds, Wardrobe, Portland, and Mintzkov. Each of the five musicians has already made their mark with these projects, and with this new formation, they prove once again that they can pass the test with flying colors.

Anyone searching for reviews of Thursday will quickly find nothing but praise. As OOR writes: “Passed with honors in the course ‘Sparklehorse for advanced listeners.’ Linkous would have been proud.” And according to Luminousdash: “We won’t hear Thursday on the dance floor, but Glitterpaard’s second album is a true gem that grows with every listen.”
