Before his successful solo music career took off, Bart Peeters was an actor, TV host, and drummer for bands like The Radios and The Clement Peerens Explosition. In 2004 he debuted “Het Plaatje van Bart Peeters,” unveiling a charismatic style heavy on nostalgic, folk melodies and contemporary pop harmonization. Utterly playful percussions pique the audience's interest on tracks like “Zeester Met Koffie” while flirty vocal arrangements—such as the ones found on his his 2008 album De Hemel in het Klad—secure even the shiest listener's affection.
