Roos Blufpand

Roos Blufpand is an artist and songwriter who stands for honesty and authenticity, wrapped in raw Dutch-language songs. With her openness about personal and social themes – from mental health to love in all its forms – she inspires her audience to be real and true to themselves. Roos's songs are dynamic, ranging from tiny behind the piano to electronic with abrasive lyrics. She performs in various settings: from festivals like Zwarte Cross to theaters like De Kleine Komedie and Stadsschouwburg Utrecht. She also plays in (sold-out) pop venues such as De Melkweg and TivoliVredenburg, but just as happily plays intimate living room concerts. Roos shares her story without a filter. She is committed to human rights, animal welfare, and the environment. She is bisexual and polyamorous and summarizes everything she stands for with the now-famous phrase among her fans: 'Only love'.

Bieke

Bieke makes Dutch Pop. She juxtaposes her experience as a nurse and a client in mental healthcare, creating a unique perspective. With her music, she looks at herself as a mindfulness exercise. On May 5, 2025, Bieke, in collaboration with De Dolle Mina’s among others, released her freedom song 'Fietsen Op Het Fietspad' (Cycling On The Bike Path), an ode to our right to demonstrate. The music video has become a time capsule of contemporary demonstrations, with footage from Black Lives Matter protests, Feminist Marches, and climate demonstrations. 3voor12 Utrecht nominated the single for Song Of The Year 2025.
