Personal Trainer

Few bands can still put on such a powerhouse rock show while monkeying around

Would Personal Trainer itself have a personal trainer? The many-headed (and ever-changing) ensemble around Amsterdam's most energetic frontman, Willem Smit, has been touring for years incessantly and relentlessly, preferably through the not-so-luxurious pop venues on the other side of the North Sea. How do they do it? You might still ask yourself that after just a single show, because these virtuosos give it their all and keep giving their infectious slacker rock songs a playful new twist — sometimes with a waltz, sometimes with a heap of noise, sometimes just that little bit faster. Faster, yes. Playing as if you're at the start of a sprint race with a hangover, jet lag, a sprained ankle, and a lost band member. How?
