After all these years: Kayak on Texel again....

In the 1970's, Kayak were regular guests on the Dutch isle of Texel, where they played at the Sarasani. Their first show there was on the 7th of july, 1973. Almost 42 years later, on 27 march 2015, Kayak will play on Texel again. In the centre of Den Burg, about 2 minutes from the Sarasani, Kayak and guests will perform excerpts from Cleopatra.

The 'guests' are Marjolein Teepen (of Nostradamus-fame), Martin van der Starre, Rolf Koster, Alexander van Breemen and a local 50-piece pop choir.

One day before the Kayak show, Ton Scherpenzeel will play a special performance with medieval music, including material from his solo album The Lion's Dream.
