The Bony King Of Nowhere

THE BONY KING OF NOWHERE
The Bony King of Nowhere centres around 21-year-old songwriter Bram Vanparys, who started experimenting with a guitar and a primitive tape recorder three years ago, only to show the results to the world in winter 2006.
His music is often described as melancholy and fragile, but also sounds surprisingly self-confident. For once, the songs are not about broken hearted lonely souls, but about meandering rivers and other earthly matters. Several times his work has been compared to Bonnie Prince Billy, Devendra Banhart and the more subtle side of Radiohead.
In September 2006, The Bony King of Nowhere won Ghent’s rock competition “De Beloften”, and in November the demo contest of Muzikantendag (KBC Demowedstrijd).
Since January 2007, Bram has been performing regularly in Flanders in duo-setting with Cleo on piano and second guitar. In summertime 2 new members were introduced: Gerben Hemelsoen (bass- and guitar player) and Jan Dhaene (drums). Nowadays the quartet have played all around, including The Netherlands and France, supporting Laïs, An Pierlé, Zita Swoon and more...
From January 2008 ('till ??), The Bony King Of Nowhere will stop playing live as Bram is going to record the first album together with producer Koen Gisen (cfr. An Pierlé&White Velvet). No concerts will be played during the recordings.
Just one more thing to say: "thanks a lot to everyone helping and supporting The Bony King Of Nowhere during it's fine start in 2007".
