Raoul & The Wisemen
We’re very happy with our current single Golden Waterfalls! A beautiful video, nice attention in the media from 3voor12, RTV80 (Kust & Duintrack) and the song was placed nr. 50 in the annual review of the best Queer tracks of 2024 by magazine Winq!
The first few months of 2025 we’ll dissapear from the stage into the studio where we’ll work on our new EP. In the meantime you can follow our journey via our social media pages.

BIO
Raoul & the Wisemen is a band that plays a melodical brew of pop and alternative music that makes you dream, melancholic and hopeful at the same time. It might remind you of Keane-like melodies, the warmth and richness of HEAVN and voices from the 80’ies like Marian Gold (Alphaville), George Michael and even the sweetness of Michael Bublé. Their productions flirt with both acoustic and electronical elements, their songs are like short stories. Think of purple neon lights over the city, warm summer nights in the forest or howling storms in your mind. In their own words: we bring you soft power story pop. Anouncing their gig in the Amsterdam Amstelpark the Dutch newspaper Het Parool mentioned that their ‘melodical pop with an electronical touch will, as we expect, make the park blossom’.
Dutch radio station NPO Radio 5 invited the band as a guest artist because of their single ‘Conversation’. Following songs received attention in Dutch media (Parool, Noord-Hollands Dagblad, Shot of Culture, ‘Toute Fabienne’/GoodLifeRadio, Radio Aalsmeer, RTV Noord-Holland and Pinguin Radio). The band played on festivals like the Come out and Play Festival, Festival Bakkum Vertelt, Haven Festival and venues like Podium de Groene Zwaan, Theater Mascini and the Amstelpark Concerten. Next to that, Raoul & the Wisemen has a special relationship with Slovenia. They regularly played at festivals and summer events in the Eastern European country and were featured on Slovene radio and television (RTV Slovenija, Radio Maxi, ALTR Radio).
