Hoquets

Influenced by the Congotronics groups and their instruments made out of recuperated materials, the members of Hoquets use a similar attitude: this Belgian/American/French trio mostly play with instruments that they invent and construct out of wooden boards, broken strings, tin cans, etc. Their music is overflowing with energy and like no other, inspired by indie pop, hip hop, punk, funk and the weirdness of their homeland.

Pushed Too Far

It all started in summer 2003 with Bert and Laurens on vocals, Roel on bass, Joey on guitar, and Kris on drums. Some songs got written but things didn’t move on. After a while, Joey left the band because he didn’t feel happy with the musical directions PTF was heading to. After some looking around, Derwin was the best man to fill the empty spot. For some time, things went right, writing some more songs. When Laurens decided to quit the band, they just move on with the 4 remaining members. This line-up did his first show in summer 2004.
