With your ears against the neighbor’s wall
Toverberg (Lars Kroon) almost sings his songs at a whisper, as if he’s scared to annoy the neighbors—not knowing that his neighbors are glued to the wall with their ears every day to hear his disarming lyrics. The little linguistic tinkerings about big topics make you fall silent. The songwriter takes the whispering and listening crown with these songs full of warm folk and country influences. Moreover, he surprises not only lyrically, but also with his change-up path as a musician: after all, he used to play in Go Back to the Zoo. So come stand next door and listen, because most dreams are deceitful, but some are not. Really. The remarkable is closer than you think.
