Jongeman & KEROL - Simplon UP

Jongeman stands as an ode to creation, a message they convey through poetic alt-rock that overwhelms the audience and pulls them through a wall of sound, revealing glimpses of the vulnerability of human existence. After releasing their debut EP De Spoeling der Jaren, followed by a packed release show at Metropool Enschede, Jongeman is ready to showcase their performance at Simplon UP.

KEROL is a Dutch-language rock band with pop hooks, shredding guitars, and raw energy. The three members – Loek (he/him), Jaimy (she/her), and Hidde (he/him) – write music that hits you straight in the face. Their songs tackle everything that piles up: stress, anger, helplessness, and the small daily frustrations everyone struggles with.

Sometimes everything goes wrong. Your head is full, you’re overwhelmed, and you’re boiling inside. You want to scream, break something, let it all out. Relatable? Then KEROL is for you. Their music is an outlet for anyone who feels lost. Loud, honest, and unfiltered.
