V11 x Rotown presents: Johannes is zijn naam
‘Johannes is zijn naam’ is the stage name of Johannes Verschaeve, who you may remember as the pleasantly deranged frontman of The Van Jets. Now he is on his own, surrounded by hissing rhythm boxes and vintage synthesizers. With his poetic Dutch lyrics about the everyday transience of life, he knows how to seduce many a visitor into a little dance. ‘Johannes is zijn naam’ is contemporary Belpop (Belgian pop, ed.) down to the deepest fibers of the word.
