Pip Blom is the leader of the Amsterdam indie trio that’s also called Pip Blom; they released their EP Grip a couple of months ago. Willem Smit, meanwhile, is the leader and sole permanent member of the Amsterdam indie collective Personal Trainer; their album Still Willing came out last year. Blom and Smit have known each other for a long time, and they’ve been collaborating for a decade. Today, they’re launching a new collaborative project called Long Fling, and their self-titled debut album is coming out this fall.
