Aarde aan Daan

Aarde aan Daan makes daydream pop with energetic grooves and lyrics full of longing, sometimes atmospheric and subdued, other times euphoric, catchy and grand. With the single Je Bent Zo Knap Dat Het Pijn Doet, the band around Dutchman Daan Hafkamp is now also taking electronic paths. Aarde aan Daan mixes an artistic approach with a pop attitude. Putting the lit in literature.

Love once brought Daan from Amsterdam to Antwerp. Love left him, but Daan stayed in Belgium and wrote the songs for Aarde aan Daan. One day he put his Pukkelpop ticket up for sale and a certain Helena became the lucky one out of 40 candidates. It turned out that she also played the guitar and joined the band after Pukkelpop. Helena recommended Hanne as a bassist. And Hanne recommended Renzo as a drummer.

Aarde aan Daan blossomed into a fresh Belgian band with the Dutch Daan Hafkamp & Renzo Rijn and Belgians Hanne Vandekerckhove & Helena Mayorga Paredes. The four live in Antwerp and Ghent and are strongly connected to both the Belgian and Dutch music landscapes.

With their authentic Dutch band sound, Aarde aan Daan in Belgium already supported Tourist LeMC in the Lotto Arena and Yong Yello, Brihang and Yevgueni, among others. In the Netherlands, Aarde aan Daan already played as the support act for Froukje and also during 15 shows of a sold-out WIES club tour. Previous singles were broadcast on Radio 1, Studio Brussels, Willy, Radio 2, 3FM and Kink FM.

New single Je Bent Zo Kap Dat Het Pijn doet heralds an era in which the band will deliver on its promises. Earth to Daan shoots through your musical stratosphere with new music.
