The Belgian music scene gets a lot of international attention. When one takes into account the number of gifted bands and talented singer-songwriters this does not raise much surprise.

One of the rising names in this firm tradition is the fresh and innovative formation Palomine. Although they had to wait some years to produce their first full length album, this group has built out a solid reputation.

In april 2002 Palomineâs Brand new start is introduced to the large audience by various Belgian radio stations. The track is received extremely well and turns out into a modest hit.

Meanwhile Palomine builds out a ravishing live performance reputation. The band plays supporting acts for various renowned Belgian artists.

After some essential changes, Palomineâs cast reaches a final formation: frontman David Janssen (voice, acoustic guitar), Simon Lenaerts (fender rhodes, keyboards), Levi Lenaerts (bass guitar), Ralf Demandt (lead guitar) and Nico Camps (drums).

In the fall of 2004 their first single Top of the World is released. This track is caught on by some national stations and gets a lot of airplay.

In 2005 Palomine records the Beatlesâ hit Across the universe. Axl Peleman takes care of the production and the backing vocals. This song marks the kickoff for a full length album, which will be released in early 2007.
