Oddbal indie by a local cult musician, poet, and artist
If you’re looking for uncompromising, oddbal indie music, Birdguy is the place to be. The eccentric musician, artist, and poet Aloïs van Bruchem (also known as Birdguy, Jan Slow, and Aloniem) can be spotted at various locations in Utrecht, from Kapitaal to La Cassette and from the conservatory to the club scene. He now officially takes the stage with the release of his debut album, which is coming out on the SoHaSo (Something Happening Somewhere) record label of Utrecht’s DJ hero Nuno Dos Santos and will be made tangible at EKKO during the album presentation.
