"Ik En Den Theo / Moi Et Le Théo, stands for the creative duo Piet Maris and Théophane Raballand, who have been making music for children for 15 years. I did not know them until now and that is unfortunate, because I missed something. [...] Releases for children like this should really be more plentiful, that was the tenor in all the reviews. "
A nice review on the new album by Ik en den Theo/ Moi et le Théo: Onderweg / En Route written by Jen de Groeve of Mappalibri.

" In early 2022, I was delightfully commissioned by International House of Literature Passa Porta to create short video portraits of a number of authors-in-residence.
For this fourth portrait, I spoke with Dutch author, actor, director and translator Martin Michael Driessen.
He talks about his latest book "Het licht aan het einde van de loop" about his experience of Brussels as a kind of Gotham City, and about the long-planned novel "Liefde in het Derde Rijk," for which he was finally able to make time in Brussels."
For the fourth time this year, Sarah Baur created a short video portrait of an author in residence, this time of Martin Michael Driessen.

Jaune Toujours and 30.000 Marchers were at the March for the Climate in Brussels. Thanks a million for everyone's commitment: it was an honour for Jaune Toujours playing their music for this (more than) right cause!
By the way, the band made it to the national news (VRT): "Happy about the turnout" but not about the climate policies though... Let's keep on making noise!
