Fans of Maggie Rogers, Kacey Musgraves, and Suki Waterhouse will LOVE Pien! Dutch indie-Americana artist PIEN is gearing up for the release of her debut EP “According to Plan”, out May 23rd. Following the releases of some of the singles on the EP, "Not Yet" and "I Know," PIEN continues to explore her distinctive sound, blending catchy moments with relatable, reflective lyricism.

"I Know," PIEN’s second single, is an enchanting track featuring dreamy melodies, driving percussion, and tastefully layered backing vocals. It addresses the internal battle of trusting one’s instincts, highlighting PIEN’s ability to create songs that resonate emotionally and can be played in any setting. Collaborating once again with long-time producer Hattie Murdoch, “I Know” was destined to be a song that leaves a lasting impression, and given the attention the song has already gained, this impact shows no signs of stopping.

Both "I Know" and the earlier track "Not Yet" have received enthusiastic praise, with the latter introducing PIEN's new direction- a blend of indie-Americana and introspective balladry. 

The full “According to Plan” EP will feature tracks like the title song "According to Plan," "Done," and the reflective "Heet Laatste Hoofdstuk" (The Last Chapter), each showcasing PIEN's evolving musical journey.

PIEN describes “According to Plan” as “an EP about finding peace with reality and how unpredictable and unfair life can feel/be sometimes. It’s about accepting that dreams and perspectives can change and that’s okay. This EP feels extra special to me because I feel this is the first time in my career (so far) that I really showed all of my colours and the truest version of myself. It also showcases the best of my vocal and writing abilities up to date. I can’t wait to share this little piece of me with the rest of the world!”

With over 22,000 streams on her single "WTF" and growing recognition on platforms like BBC Introducing and Dutch radio stations, PIEN is gaining momentum. Fans of indie-Americana and artists like Maggie Rogers, Kacey Musgraves, and Suki Waterhouse will find PIEN’s magical voice and honest storytelling hard to resist.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
