Dutch Mustard | surrender to love tour
Dutch Mustard is the musical project of Dutch-born, London-based artist and producer Sarah-Jayne Riedel (SJ). Her sound drifts between ethereal dream pop, 90s alternative rock, and shoegaze, blending dreamy melodies with raw guitars and energetic outbursts. Drawing influence from artists like Wolf Alice, Gretel Hanlyn, and NewDad, she seeks a direct, physical connection with her audience. Since her debut EP An Interpretation of Depersonalisation (2022) and its follow-up Beauty (2023), she has evolved into a versatile songwriter and producer. Her music has received airplay on BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music and has been championed by the likes of Iggy Pop, Lauren Laverne, and Jack Saunders. She was also named by the Grammy Awards as one of six female acts breathing new life into rock.
On her latest single ‘Are You Open’, released via her own label DM Records, Dutch Mustard explores the complexities of love, desire, and acceptance. What begins with ethereal sounds and staccato acoustic guitar unfolds into an immersive composition that eventually erupts into a raw, experimental noise outburst. The track was co-written with Callum Merrett of Bad Sounds and Baby Universe and produced by SJ herself. This independent approach reflects her ongoing development as an artist and producer, as she continues to carve out more space for experimentation and expression. Following previous performances in the United States, including at the New Colossus Festival in New York, Dutch Mustard has announced her most extensive headline tour to date, with a show at Cinetol in Amsterdam on May 7th.
