De Toegift

I hear something…
Out of nowhere, at the start of 2023, De Toegift suddenly emerges. The melancholic sounds of Zeeland from their self-titled debut album blow across to the mainland of the Netherlands and Belgium with gale force winds.

From the very first notes, the band is praised in the press; according to 3voor12, De Toegift delivered the best show at Noorderslag 2023, and their debut album received a five-star review in Trouw.

With distinctive lyrics and a fresh blend of indie, folk, and jazz, De Toegift is a welcome addition to the current wave of Dutch-language artists. After a successful spring tour, the band played at dozens of festivals, including Best Kept Secret and Into The Great Wide Open.

Now joined by a violinist and flutist, De Toegift continues to seek out experimentation, which is also evident on their remix EP De vormen voelen vreemd (The Shapes Feel Strange), where the band collaborated with artists such as Lucky Fonz III and gladde paling.
