Rick de Leeuw
Time seems to have no hold on Rick de Leeuw. He still performs with the same boundless energy he brought to the Tröckener Kecks in the nineties.
Rick de Leeuw is a Dutch phenomenon who has been a household name in Flanders for years. He writes novels and poetry, appears on radio and television, and remains an enviably energetic rock singer on stage.
It is undeniably refreshing to hear Rick de Leeuw sing the title track on his latest album, 'Het komt allemaal goed'. The other eleven songs also feature an intense yet remarkably positive sound.
Two sides of an LP proved insufficient for the creative drive of Rick and his band, so their new record will be a triple-sided release. Twelve songs inspired by a treasure trove that opens its doors to only a few: the magnificent art collection of the Phoebus Foundation.
In addition to this new material, he will naturally be happy to dive into his older repertoire as well. Backed by a five-piece band that blends artistic daring, musical experience, and youthful bravado, he is heading out on tour in 2025.
Support Bjarke Ramsing
Bjarke Ramsing is no ordinary singer-songwriter. His musical roots lie deep in the Danish countryside, where he was nourished by the raw essence of old American folk, blues, and roots music. But standing still? Not an option. For years, he has traveled across Europe with his guitar as a faithful companion and a voice that sounds as lived-in as it is sincere.
Over the past two years, his dynamic folk has found a new home in the Low Countries. Here, he forged a musical alliance with double bassist Teun van Langen and drummer/percussionist Floris Venema. Together, they create a sound that shifts between intimate, refined ballads and unpolished, energetic acoustic rock.
But Bjarke is no slick storyteller. His lyrics dig, dissect, and confront. They relentlessly search for beauty amidst the frayed edges of the modern world. Live, he holds nothing back—his performances are raw, honest, and compelling. No frills, no masks. Just music that cuts straight to the soul.
Prepare yourself for a musical experience that is as honest as it is uncompromising. Bjarke Ramsing will take you along—whether you're ready or not.
