With Ries de Wit as unique vocalist/frontman – who associated himself with Bowie since his early childhood, and in result does not imitate, but brings Bowie alive from his own authenticity – the band takes you on a musical journey through that inheritence with a passionate show.
Supported by visuals with Bowie’s periodical characters, Ground Control creates a true experience of and hommage to the musical greatness that David Bowie was.
“With an unmistakable charisma and a sound that fired up the audience, Ground Control captured the hearts of their public. Each song was performed with passion and craftmanship. The singer brought the iconic songs to live with his velvet voice. In a world where tributes lead their own lives on television, Ground Control proves that real passion and commitment form the true essence of a tribute. With their impressive performance they made Boskoop tremble and kept the legacy of David Bowie alive.” (Ron van Varik, Poppodium The Cube, Boskoop)
