DANS DANS
Bert Dockx (guitar) Frederic Lyenn Jacques (bass / keys / electronics) Steven Cassiers (drums / percussion / electronics)
Dans Dans is the utterly unique musical collective featuring Bert Dockx (frontman of the acclaimed Flying Horseman), Frederic Jacques (bassist for the great Mark Lanegan and himself a formidable songsmith and singer under the Lyenn moniker) and Steven Cassiers (a sought-after instrumentalist who has collaborated with the likes of Dez Mona and DAAU). They take the long tradition of twangy guitar-slingers mixing blues, jazz and early rock & roll to a whole new level, creating a gothic stew of brooding melodies and voodoo rhythms. Since their debut in 2012, the trio has been astounding listeners with music impossible to pin. Instrumental, atmospheric, hypnotic, delicate and wild: Dans Dans tirelessly construct their own musical universe and time and again demonstrate why they are one of the most intriguing bands currently working today. Miss them at your peril.

Live, their performances are something else; expansive moments, full of rhythmic textures, backed by the tight, kicking rhythm section.

“The guitar playing is explosive but focused, and the cohesion within the band is
