Dead Belgian Fan Page

Dead Belgian play the songs of Jacques Brel. Debut album 'Love & Death: The Songs of Jacques Brel'' released on 2nd July 2012. 'Dead Belgian's deliciously ramshackle approach deconstructs Brel the icon to reclaim him as a street musician, chanson maestro and people's champion.'' MOJO '' The way to perform to perform Brel is to throw yourself at it, and the dramatic Dead Belgian do that with aplomb....at their best when playing with gusto, as with the romping 'Les Bourgeois' and the delicious 'Amsterdam.'' UNCUT '' An unlikely bunch who've gone several stops beyond in the restorative promotion of very possibly the greatest Belgian in the history of the world ever. And they are terrific.'' fROOTS ''Love and Death is rowdy, engaging and passionate. Despite the inevitable comparisons to the vocals of Edith Piaf and Nico, Dead Belgian have created a sound that is all their own, while remaining true to the spirit of Brel’s music and poetry. Neil McFadyen, Folk Radio UK ‘’Dead Belgian play the music of Jacques Brel with a twist of stunning originality and devotion that has been garnering them serious attention from the music critics and standing ovations wherever they play.’’ Band On The Wall, Manchester
