SON MIEUX

Sunday 1 May 2022 2022

Son Mieux is the Hofstad’s hope in anxious days. The band from The Hague, with frontman singer/songwriter Camiel Meiresonne, recently conjured hit after hit from their high-cut trousers. With 1992 and now Drive, the train to stardom for Son Mieux seems to be really picking up steam. Pure, bombastic and damn catchy.

The psychedelic slacker band Niko, with former members of Soul Sister Dance Revolution and Taymir, will provide the support act during the concert of May 1, 2022 in our Grote Zaal.

After the success of the EP Vice Versa, the band released its debut album Faire de Son Mieux (French for: ‘Getting the most out of yourself’) in February 2019. The album contains ten pop songs with irresistible hooks and choruses. With a personal story as in the best folk, but also with an electronic underlay. This combination results in neat, always danceable music with a deep emotional charge. Voilà: the DNA of the Son Mieux sound.

This year the album ‘The Mustard Seed’ will be released by the band whose singles ‘1992‘ and ‘Drive‘ can already be heard everywhere. Son Mieux is Camiel Meiresonne, Maud Akkermans, Quinten Meiresonne, Chayenne van der Kooij, Timo Prins and Niels de Maa.

Support: Niko
The boys from Niko are on the rise with their raw, catchy and indie-rock imbued songs. The lyrics feed into the full, rich sound that the band delivers like their lives depend on it.
 Niko started out in Los Angeles as a solo-experiment by the lead singer in 2016. Shortly after releasing ‘Laptop’ and returning home to The Hague a full fledged band was formed. The guys started working on the like cigarettes sounding EP ‘You Might Like It, But I Might Just Hate It‘ which was released in 2018. Also released on cassette, it’s filled with fierce guitar solos, edgy riffs and choruses that feel like you’re cruising down the A12 when you sing along.
 After a wide variety of shows and festivals, they recorded a new record that was released in August of 2019. The six songs, working together with producer Tom Meijer, sees Niko carving deeper into their raw, catchy sound.
 They are currently locked down in quarantaine somewhere creating their debut album. Everybody’s healthy and pretty much happy.
