Library Card is a Rotterdam four-piece - Lot van Teylingen (vocals/spoken word), Mitchell Quitz (guitar), Kat Kalkman (bass) and Emre Karayalçin (drums) - who formed in the summer of 2021 from within the city's close-knit music scene. Their sound moves between angular post-punk, garage rock and post-rock, drawing on Protomartyr, Life Without Buildings and the poetry of Anne Clark. NRC compared them to Dry Cleaning, but more idiosyncratic. Within a year of their first gig they were playing SXSW, ESNS and Best Kept Secret, and touring Germany, France, Denmark and Austria.
Library Card announced their debut album 'Peeling An Orange In Just One Go', scheduled for November 6, 2026 via label AT EASE, together with the new single 'People Pleaser'.
The single 'People Pleaser', released on July 1, 2026, was recorded and mixed by Daan Duurland and mastered by Felix Davis.
Library Card released the single 'Out of Context' in April 2026, as a precursor to the upcoming album.
In October 2025, the double single 'Art School / Days of Clay' appeared, the first release after the debut EP.
Library Card performed for the second time at the Eurosonic Noorderslag (ESNS) festival in Groningen, following an earlier edition in 2024.
