The star of Eefje de Visser shines brightly in the sky. After causing a minor upheaval five years ago with ‘Bitterzoet’, the Dutch artist, who resides in Ghent, returned last year with its follow-up, ‘Heimwee’. It reaffirmed what we already knew: no one makes Dutch-language pop music as exciting and mysterious as Eefje de Visser. On ‘Heimwee’, Eefje expands her unique universe with adventurous arrangements, rich harmonies, and realistic lyrics about deeply human themes. The result is an album that embraces and makes you dance, sounding both light and grounded. It combines acoustic beats, sultry basslines, and shimmering synths with lush strings and seventies-inspired harmonies. Eefje de Visser is a trailblazer in bringing Dutch-language music to an international audience. This year, she is touring in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, and Switzerland. The true power of Eefje de Visser is experienced when she takes the stage. Accompanied by her band and dancers, she wraps her stunning pop songs in unpredictable choreography and a mesmerizing light show. There’s no better match for the magical setting of Minnewaterpark at sunset! |
