SHORT DOCUMENTARY IT DEEL I

Together with Popfabryk, under the auspices of Oranjewoud Festival, the Kleefstra Bros started a four year artist-in-residence project called 'IT DEEL'. This year's first edition we did with Michał Jacaszek. In June we recorded an album in a small church in the woods, near the festival site, which will be released in a few months by Moving Furniture Records. In August we played the festival, and in December we'll play in Poland. Meanwhile Willem Tiemersma and Jaap Ruurd Feitsma made a lovely short 10 minute documentary about the project, which is online now. Sit back, relax and check it out:

NEW COLLECTION OF POEMS BY JAN KLEEFSTRA

 

'Laat het bos maar uithuilen' is a new collection of Dutch poems by Jan Kleefstra. This collection is the result of long walks in the area Causses et Cevennes and surrounding areas in Southern France. The verses express the encounters and the inseparable connection of all the life with the mountains, the clouds, the valleys and the sea.

'Laat het bos maar uithuilen' is published by Wijdemeer Publishers. Design of the book by Rutger Zuydervelt and illustrations by Lucien Tinga. Available through the Kleefstra Bros Bandcamp.
