VOZ – Pinguin Radio Showcases 19 januari – Q Factory Stage Back
“Heel eigen stijl… karakteristieke melodische wendingen… eigentijds geluid” schrijft popjournalist Peter Bruyn over VOZ. VOZ is een Nederlandstalige indiepopband uit Haarlem.
De band bouwt met elektrorock en jazz-invloeden voort op de lange traditie van tekst-georiënteerde Nederlandstalige kwaliteitspop, van Frank Boeijen tot Eefje de Visser. VOZ is als live-act ook wel omschreven als ‘The Police meets Steely Dan meets Jan Wolkers.’
