The Fabulous New Album By WALE

Harry De Waij And Joos Van Leeuwen

We have been writing around 70 songs together over the last years, and have been working together around 15 years. Tuesday night only when we had the time....no stress. We make music we like to make without any restrictions and make it because love music...never for a commercial Joos is well known and works in 1 of the best studios in Holland while I am just an amateur but one with many ideas. My music always comes from the heart with different feelings at different times.

I have always been playing guitar....
