The Kik Hertaalt!
The Kik |
They are the Google Translate of Dutchlanguage beat music, or ‘nederbiet’. But far more exciting. Just hand these five sharpdressed men an English song lyric and The Kik is sure to produce a Dutch re-wording that is so smooth it surpasses even the original. They first caused a storm as the in-house band on daily talkshow De Wereld Draait Door.
Since then they have given forty hits new lyrics, in Dutch. On the Giel Beelen Show they performed a rewrite of In Your Arms by Chef’ Special, and on Radio 1 they played Bankje in de zon set to The Kinks’ Sunny Afternoon.
For their theatre concert show The Kik Hertaalt! this group of musicians have selected their very best. Frontman Dave von Raven will be revealing the stories behind the greatest hits.
regie: Gérard van Kalmthout
music: Dave von Raven, Marcel Groenewegen, Arjan Spies, Ries Doms en Paul Zoontjens
