Bààn

04/10/202005/10/2020

Look no further - the duo behind this slightly cryptic name are big names in the national music industry: Pascal N. Paulus (AKA Paulson) on the synthesiser and Jean-Philippe De Gheest on the drum. The former plays multiple instruments and is a former producer of Mélanie De Biasio, La Jerôme, Kris Dane, and more. The latter is mostly known for his many years of collaboration with American gothic rock singer Mark Lanegan and is also a member of Piloot, a groovy and experimental improvisation trio.
