Smoorverliefd

About

Smoorverliefd is a Dutch tribute band with one job: sounding as close to Doe Maar as humanly possible. They've been at it for more than ten years, playing across the Netherlands and Belgium and even making it to the Antilles. The pop, reggae and ska mix of the original band is what they chase, down to the typical reggae grooves, the recognisable little chords and that light, playful rhythmic drive. They've had some real recognition along the way. In 2016 the Volkskrant ranked them among the three best tribute bands in the country, and they've played festivals like Zwarte Cross and Mañana Mañana, plus tribute events such as Buttonpop and De Nacht van de Kaap. Their stages have ranged from open air theatres and pop venues to tropical beaches and even women's prisons. Singer Guus Bok joined in 2022, and since then the band has moved toward bigger festival and theatre shows.
