Dirk is a natural performer and cares deeply about the show he’s performing with his two bands. This has also led him on the sidequest to learn more about the world of stage lightning and sometimes Dirk takes place behind a lightning console. Dirk sometimes takes the role as show director; either for his own bands or for other groups in which uses his network of stylists, lightning technicians, audio techs and inventors to create a next level show.
He has also been a driving force behind the album output of the groups he’s involved in; overseeing the studio process and working with graphic designers to produce artwork for the sleeves. For the Laaglands record he was involved in writing subsidy applications; to scouting locations for the video’s and overseeing the videoshoot.
Dirk also cares who’s on the line-up besides his own groups. He has been involved in curating, programming and hosting some memorable nights in Paradiso, Skatecafe, Wildeburg and beyond. Dirk is always able to mobilize his extensive network in the music scene to bring musicians, DJ’s and bands together to create something special.
