Club Solange

Singer Solange Rosendaal is a proud resident of Eindhoven, where she is dedicated to helping others realise their musical dreams. Solange herself was once hailed as “one of the greatest discoveries of Club Dauphine” in Amsterdam by talent scout Martijn Roos, and praised for her vocal sound by none other than Frank McComb, with whom she has shared the stage. She also performed as the support act for Berget Lewis. With Club Solange, her own musical dream is coming true: an evening where music takes on a deeper meaning through the personal stories of the artists.

“If you won’t say it, I will”, that’s the motto of 25-year-old Sanna Kroon. With this as her guiding principle, she and her three-piece band create raw Dutch-language music that shies away from no subject. Sanna’s sound is a fusion of storytelling and rock, carried by brooding productions with spoken word as the common thread. Through this, Sanna does not fear confrontation; she is unafraid to tackle difficult themes, giving words to what we would often rather leave unsaid. Her years of experience in theatre form the foundation for a narrative and sincere performance in which non-fiction and recognition are central, making her a fitting act for this edition of Club Solange.
