About
Racoon is a Dutch pop-rock band from Goes, Zeeland, formed in 1997 by singer Bart van der Weide and guitarist Dennis Huige. Their 2005 breakthrough single 'Love You More' reached number three on the Dutch Top 40, and the band has since landed four number-one albums on the Dutch Albums Chart, won the Popprijs and collected three Edison awards. They move freely between English and Dutch - from 'Oceaan' and 'Het is al laat toch' to their 2024 English-language comeback album 'It Is What It Is'.
