The band, originally from The Hague, known for pop classics such as Hey Girl, Beep Beep Love, Tokyo, Rock ’n Roll and Disco Really Made It, has been performing again with great success for a number of years. The line-up still consists of frontman and songwriter Hans Vandenburg (vocals/guitar) and the other original members Peter Calicher (keyboards) and Max Mollinger (drums). The eye-catchers Lies Schilp & Inge Bonthond (both vocals) are also part of the party as the Bombitas. Tim Barning (bass) has completed the company since the album Great. With this record, the band made an acclaimed comeback in 2018. “Gruppo’s best since Back to ‘78”, wrote music magazine OOR.

Of course, the necessary hits will also be played. As well as other favorites of the audience and/or the band itself.
