DeWolff
Group 5 Copy
5 aug

DeWolff are a young Hammond/guitar/drums three-piece from The Netherlands making an explosive mix of electrified southern bluesrock with a dash of soul and psychedelica. They are some of the meanest, energetic, road-hardened and virtuosic musicians around and have been playing together for half their lives.

Now, still in their mid twenties, they have already released 9 studio albums (7 of which hit the Dutch Top 20), 3 live albums, 2 EP’s and even recorded an album with Black Keys-producer Mark Neill. Furthermore they have their own fully analog studio where they not only produce their own but also produced many other critically acclaimed albums, and which has already become a cornerstone in the new chapter of Dutch roots-rock history. Even Luther Dickinson regularly comes over to record some songs together.

They have already played over a 1000 shows in Europe, Australia, Indonesia and Russia and since 3 years they even organise their own festival ‘DeWolffest’. In 2019 the band picked up the prestigious Edison Award (Dutch Grammy) for ‘Best Rock’ and in 2020 a Buma Award for “Best Sync”. The last tour saw the band play over a 100 shows across 13 countries – The Netherlands, Switzerland, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Lithuania, Italy, Denmark, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Austria and their first trip to Indonesia! They also toured with the likes of Toto, The Black Crowes, The Black Keys, Deep Purple, Ten Years After and Wolfmother and picked up fans in e.g. Seasick Steve, who once woke up backstage at a festival to hear them play, thinking he heard the Allman Brothers playing from 1972, and Roger Glover who has openly declared his love for the band. Even though they’re already blasting for more than a decade, these guys are just starting…

Dear visitor,

With a lot of energy and confidence and after years of research and inventory, the preparations for the Flycatcher Rock Festival started last year. We have worked together with very experienced people and companies from the festival world to organize a solid festival with a high-quality line-up. In the end, Flycatcher did not succeed in its set-up, because, despite the preparation, the right experience and knowledge, but certainly also a good line-up, there was not enough enthusiasm for this festival. That made us decide to cancel the festival because of too little interest from other potential visitors. That was a very difficult decision, but there was no other option.

For the festival, all parties involved worked hard to promote and implement the festival in a responsible manner, but the fact remains that due to the disappointing ticket sale, the financial risks were too high. The only conclusion that could ultimately be drawn was to cancel the festival. This decision has not been easy, but it was the only pure option.

In the background, we have been working hard in recent months to limit the financial consequences of the festival and to investigate possible alternatives. The fact is that all input and funds received have been paid to bands and suppliers, but also that there are no further funds left to pay the rest of the claims. To our great regret, this also applies to the people who have bought a ticket, but also to partners such as Stanislaus Brewskovitch who have suffered a major financial setback due to this situation. The situation has been submitted to various authorities and the consequence is that Flycatcher Festival BV will cease to exist.

We are very sorry that this has happened.
