Here in Holland i have a music hero , his name is Bertolf , a singer/songwriter . After 3 solo albums he has started a band with his mate and writing
partner Bas Wilberink . The band is Color Reporters and they just released their debut album.
The combination between the voices works very well , great lyrics and melodies . I love it !!!
Please listen and tell me what you all think :

Yes , i d love to . The band was started by Bertolf . He s a very fine Dutch singer/songwriter . After 3 solo albums he started writing with his guitarplayer Bas Wilberink and they soon discovered that their voices did blend very good. Bas has a high pitched voice and Bertolf can do harmony with a lower voice.
The album came out a few weeks ago . It s a pity that Spotify is not availlable in Canada yet as i heard recently , other wise you could listen to the album in full.
I m in contact with Bertolf for some years now and he s one of the kindest people you can imagine in the music scene . Also i sometimes email with Bas and keyboard player Caesar .
I m going to see the band in june live in Rotterdam and i m looking forward to it very much .
Although it s in Dutch i d like to show you their website , you can see some interesting things !!

I hope i can show this band to people outside Holland and hope that they will get attention in other countries .

Thank you Steve . Bertolf told me that for the moment , the record is only released in Holland . What do you all think , would there be interest in this album and band in America and Canada ?
Please check them in this video that they made for Recordstore Day
