Bender

Dutch band Bender is touring the country from spring 2027 with a new song programme: Liever gelukkig (Rather Happy). The programme explores the confusing times we live in and how to find your way as a person - sometimes heading straight for your goal, sometimes full of doubt and taking many detours. Joyful and exuberant, yet also moving and melancholic, with new songs that have something to say.

Bender previously released the albums 'Nooit weggeweest' (2025), 'Broos' (2016) and 'Voor het te laat is' (2012), alongside singles such as 'Wonder' and 'Dankbaar tevreden'. A new album is in the works and will be presented in 2027.

The band consists of Jan Rooijmans (guitar, vocals), Boris Vissers (piano, vocals), Jos Caspers (double bass, vocals) and Bert Vissers (vocals, guitar, piano).
