BeezNeez ◉ Sound of Ghent

Solid instrumental groove collective

BeezNeez is a 5-piece band that smoothly glues rhythms and melodies from all over the world.

Traveler-musician Raffaello Visconti is a mix of cultures in itself. He tells his stories in melodies, rhythms and atmospheres, tap dancing above a sea of guitar effects. Bassist Filip Catteuw was already active as a musician during the second Kortrijk punkwave of the 80s. His predilection for vintage soul, rockabilly, chanson, funk and disco provides the 'old school foundation' of the band. Daniel Clariste Guedegbe is a guitarist and choreographer. He danced for seven years with the national ballet of Benin. His energetic percussive guitar playing provides a delicious dose of jazzy afrofunk. Everything is put together by Pieter Vanoverberghe on the drums and Core Pareja on the congas, bongos and a host of other Latin American percussion instruments.
