NEW RISING SUN + support act BERANG -full band-

DRIES BONGAERTS & NEW RISING SUN New rising sun is the band around singer Dries Bongaerts and guitarist David Hermans, who met each other as street musicians at the cathedral of Antwerp. From the streets of Antwerp, New Rising Sun grew into a permanent fixture within the Belgian indie rock scene. With three albums to their name and experience on larger stages, they bring a sound that is simultaneously raw, melodic, and compelling. Their songs balance between vulnerability and strength, with an energy that only really explodes live. New Rising Sun sounds like a new dawn for those who believe in real, soulful rock. Consisting of Dries Bongaerts (vocals, guitars, keys), David Hermans (guitars), Roy Van Dijke (bass), and Charlie Engels (drums), New Rising Sun forms an Antwerp, Belgian band that is stronger than ever. Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIJELNsCbJ4 For fans of: Bob Dylan, Nick Cave, Absynthe Minded + Support Act: BERANG -full band- Berang plays indie folk with a punk soul, or punk with a folk heart. At the end of January, his second album, ‘Does It Ever Get Better?’, was released and he presented it in the Netherlands, Germany, and of course in Belgium. With performance 300 in prospect, he is still not played out. He often performs solo but likes to play with a band for this occasion. Expect not only protest songs but also songs about connection. That is at least as important. Inspired by Elliott Smith, The Weakerthans, and the feeling you get when you read the newspaper. 🕢Doors: 7:30 p.m. Berang : 8:00 p.m. New Rising Sun: 9:15 p.m. – 11:00 p.m.
