NAyM

- No Angry Young Man-
singer-songwriter band from Belgium

Spring 2006, the roads of Johan Loeckx and Jeroen Van Ham, 2 Belgian musicians, cross. Their common musical interests ultimately result in the formation of NayM. Soon, Pieter Hulst joins the band. The trio strives to combine open-minded melodies with honest and pure emotions, resulting in songs that –above all- tell stories. About now, elsewhere here and how it used to be.

The band's sound has an atmospheric, dreamlike quality. The lack of a traditional rhythm section brings their music back to basics. Most of the multi-vocal arrangements are difficult to pin down to a specific classification. However, in general the music style is said to be “singer songwriter”. A base of piano mixed with cello and a dash of guitar, this is Naym.

Naym is the acronym for “No Angry Young Man”, a Dylan quote from 1969. He once told in an interview: "I don't want to protest any more. I never said I'm an angry young man."

As a youngster, Johan Loeckx falls in love with what would become his greatest passion, the piano. For several years, he is part of the pop-rock band Loepoes at the keys. Moreover, Johan is a member of The Party Band, a popular cover band in Belgium. With half a hermit soul, he started exploring his musical boundaries several years ago. Nowadays, his main focus is on writing songs for Naym.

Pieter Hulst is a classical educated cellist player. Pieter studied at the Royal Academy of Antwerp and Brussels. He played in the orchestra of Dirk Brosse and Jos Van Immerseel and won the first international price of chamber music in the Netherlands with Trio Schubert in 1998. Pieter has been active as cellist with the contemporary Trio 7 from Antwerp and collaborated to multiple recording sessions for movies. Beside this, he participated in several folk, jazz and classical projects throughout the years.

Jeroen Van Ham is the lead vocalist of Naym. This singer songwriter already explored a variety of musical roads. In 1999 he formed the band InGenius which won the Interfaculty Music Contest in Louvain (2002). About 6 years later, he was asked as vocalist and keyboard player in the cover band The Wallstars. Songwriting, however, remains his greatest passion. In 2004 he reaches the quarter finals of Humo’s Rock Rally, Belgium’s biggest song contest. Especially his intimate piano ballads where praised by the national press.
