For listeners of 3FM, Bertolf Lentink is now no longer unknown. During the past year, his song "Cut Me Loose 'megahit already voted, but rather he scored even a big hit with" Another Day ". Tonight Bertolf to Mezz traveled for his club tour, which is dominated by his latest album "Snakes & Ladders'.
The support is provided by Ed Struijlaart. Ed was formerly the frontman of the band Stud Muffins, now on his own and that goes to him. So is his song "Against The Wall 'will soon be seen in the English version of the film" A Woman Doctor. " Live Struijlaart armed with a guitar and a second guitarist / vocalist. The songs are accessible and almost instantly hum-along-able. The minimalist accompaniment does, however, that many songs are alike and some would be more visible with a full band. Struijlaart has a hell of a voice, so it remains the action interesting. The best track for the last time he saves, which warms up for the public good Bertolf.
Bertolf immediately kicks off with the title track of "Snakes & Ladders'. The decor is dressed for the occasion with ladders and snakes. The enthusiasm of the band and especially Bertolf itself, immediately turn over to the public. Bertolf has brought together a good band, which is remarkable how well the other members perform the background vocals. This is mainly up well during the semi-acoustic interlude, which BERTOLF personal favorite "Patty Lane" played (and that is indeed a gem).
The Beatles. The music is best described as a mixture of a variety of British bands like Keane, Muse, Radiohead and The Beatles, BERTOLF's biggest inspiration. Besides many songs from "Snakes & Ladders' and his debut album" For Life "are also two outstanding covers addressed. The first cover is 'Begin' by Madcon, which Bertolf jacket is poured into a funk. The other is 'Paranoid Android' by Radiohead, which is memorably played by the band. Besides these notable performances, are also BERTOLF's own songs "My Loneliness", the former 3FM megahit "Cut Me Loose" and the new single 'Two In A Million' highlights.
The wide range in age audience receives the music of Bertolf enthusiastic and creates a pleasant atmosphere in Mezz. The evening ends with BERTOLF biggest hit so far, "Another Day". The appended instrumental passage shows once again that there are a number of strong musicians, most of all have fun in playing. Everyone from young to old will eventually be returned home with a smile.
