Utrecht

In this last episode of Muziekstad, Eva Koreman is in Utrecht. Pop stage EKKO features the psychedelic southern rock band DeWolff, 45Acidbabies with grungy glitter pop and master pianist Pieter de Graaf, once one of the first musicians of The Kyteman Orchestra. DeWolff recently released their ninth album, Wolffpack, on which they address heavily loaded themes. Muziekstad visits the trio in their electrosaurus southern sound studio, in a wharf cellar in Utrecht. Pieter de Graaf he once started his career as a keyboardist with, among others, The Kyteman Orchestra, Wouter Hamel and with his own jazz trio. He got RSI and had to start all over again: that became a solo project with prepared piano in which he makes neo-classical music with subtle electronics. Pieter visits the new breeding ground of Colin Benders (Kyteman). 45Acidbabies was born at the Herman Brood Academy in Utrecht. They make hyperactive rock 'n roll songs, or "Bubblegum garage pop" as they call it.
