Welcome Lenny Lenny
V2 is pleased to announce the signing of Lennert Coorevits' new solo project called "Lenny Lenny." Picture a sweet spot between Beck, Paul McCartney and Childish Gambino... That's where Lennert Coorevits sets up camp with Lenny Lenny, his brand new solo-work and main musical project for the next year, while Compact Disk Dummies is taking a well-deserved break. The first single, "Tambourine," will be released on April 24, but we are happy to share a first sneak peak.
Soulful, stripped-back, yet still danceable in their own way, musically Lenny Lenny sails in a different direction than the band he runs with his brother Janus. In this setup, he shakes off the 4-to-the-floor beat, and creates a highly personal and eclectic sound with a warm, vintage seventies glow. There's soul to be found, and a brilliant dynamic that teases the listener onto the dancefloor.
"Tambourine," the first single set for release on April 24, is steeped in a vintage sound with modern touches; energetic, playful, yet classy. Not unlike the way Lennert himself drifts through life. So why choose "Lenny Lenny" instead of his birth name?
"The project is very personal and close to my skin. But I still see Lenny Lenny as an alter ego that dares just a bit more than I do," Lennert explains. "An amplification of my style, my influences, my stories. 'Regular' Lenny creates it, Lenny Lenny dares to project and push the pedal to the metal."
Lenny Lenny will also be hitting the stage live, backed by an incredible band. You can catch him at the following summer festivals
