Tim Knol & Bluegrass Boogiemen In February 2024, Tim Knol and Bluegrass Boogiemen released their second collaborative album, Ride Again. Tim has always been passionate about bluegrass and country music, and teaming up with his friends from The Boogiemen in 2019 was a dream come true. Since then, they have embarked on extensive club and theater tours, performed on major Dutch radio and TV shows, and played at renowned festivals like Lowlands, Zwarte Cross, Noorderslag/Eurosonic, and Paaspop. Their debut album Happy Hour was widely praised and even reached #1 in the Dutch Vinyl Top 33. Sunken Lands A fresh force in the Dutch Americana and country scene, Sunken Lands is known for their unique blend of melancholy and energy. Their original songs land somewhere between Waylon Jennings and Drive-By Truckers, delivering a heartfelt yet powerful sound. In January 2025, they released their latest single, and their upcoming album Burning Desire is set to drop in spring 2025. Melanie Ryan A dream chaser with big sister energy – that’s the best way to describe Melanie Ryan. Born and raised in IJsselstein, the Netherlands, she is on a mission to bring country music back to life! With her unique mix of Country, Pop, and Folk – or as she calls it, Braided Style Country – Melanie tells stories about her roots, her musical journey, and love.
