Kraaijeveld

Short lived band with both brothers Kraaijeveld, from 1970 to 1972.
Musical differences between Frank and Arti Kraaijeveld and the other Bintangs members led to a new band with their own last name.
They were supported by Hein Brandjes, guitar and Gerard Borst on drums.
Musically there's not a big change and after four singles and one under the name Circus Kraaijeveld, Frank reunited with the Bintangs and Arti founded *Carlsberg*.
One of the Kraaijeveld singles was released under the name Kraayeveld, but this was due to a decision of the record company.
In the days of Circus Kraaijeveld, they also recorded an album. It was never released because of technical problems during the mixing proces.
Later the Bintangs released 2 singles as Kraaijeveld in 1974 and 1975.
Kraaijeveld songs regularly appear on the Bintangs setlists.

In 2017 the band kind of reformed for the release of their first ever album. They played a set at the Blues On The Ceiling night of the Bintangs.
For the occasion the band consisted of:
Frank Kraaijeveld, Bass/vocals
Gerard Borst, drums
Dagomar Jansen, Guitar/vocals
Jan Wijte, Leadguitar
Marco Nicola, Slideguitar.
Arti Kraaijeveld was present, but due to an illness not able to play with them.

Groep uit de IJmond, genoemd naar de broers Frank en Arti Kraaijeveld. Voortgekomen uit (en later weer opgegaan in) de Bintangs.
