In 2025, Yevgueni will blow out 25 candles! On Feb. 9, 2000, Klaas, Geert and Maarten win the Interfaculty Song Contest at KU Leuven. They look at each other and all three think the same thing: “We're off!”
Twenty-five years later, the boyhood dream continues and, of course, it needs to be celebrated lavishly.
Day by day twenty-five years after that very first gig, Yevgueni is playing a Rewind concert of “Cannibal” in AB Brussels. The band will perform their debut album there in its entirety. And because celebrating a quarter-century of Yevgueni can never be exuberant enough, the band is actually adding a best of.
Yevgueni loves many stages, from pubs to summer festivals. But also manages to surprise again and again with haunting performances for the lee and spotlights of the theater. Or as it was recently written down by a connoisseur, “Band, frontman (and crew) drag you into their universe of sound, light, stillness and narrative, delay and acceleration. To send you into the night an hour and a half later moved, comforted, hopeful and exuberant.” Once again - and more than ever - that will be the case.
