Kleazer timeline

 

Autumn 2006; four musicians with different musical backgrounds start jamming. Without a specific musical goal but with a shared love for raw rock music with a head and a tail, the four guys decide to approach the project more seriously. The band starts to rehearse regularly and the first self-written songs start to take form and the project gets a name, Kleazer.

March 2007; first try-out gig in Café Kremer in Vroomshoop. The positive response and the band’s own good feeling about this works good and motivating for the band that is now eager to play more shows. This also happens in the summer on several regional festivals, youth centres and pubs. The band grows musically and equally the positive response of the audiences.

End of 2007; after the busy festival season and gig-list the band decides to enter the studio to record a demo for promotional use. The demo - released in early 2008 – receives positive reviews but lacks in energy and rawness, which makes the band appreciated for as a live act.

Spring 2008; April 30th Kleazer plays the finals of “de Grote Prijs van Twenterand” (regional band contest) and wins.

Mid 2008; Kleazer gets selected to play the “Oogst van Overijssel” (a band competition for the province of Overijssel). The band survives the qualifying round. Following on that the band wins the semi finals at Atak in Enschede, which puts the band in the finals of the band competition. Unfortunately the band doesn’t end up in the top 3 at the finals in Hedon in Zwolle.

The experience of the “Oogst van Overijssel” and the unexpected qualification for the finals gives Kleazer a boost and the band is even more motivated to develop and grow. New songs get written a few old ones disappear.

Beginning 2009; Kleazer plays the qualifying rounds of “de Grote Prijs van Twente” in Almelo and plays the finals. The band wins the finals. Kleazer also wins the qualifying round for The Pulse Contest (in Borne) and plays finals of this competition.

Mid 2009;The band gets asked to play on Bevrijdingsfestival Zwolle on May 5th. Kleazer will also play at the Geuzenpop festival in Enschede as a result of winning the Grote Prijs van Twente. In august the band has a guest appearance at "Stenders Eetvermaak" on national radiostation 3FM.

End of 2009; Kleazer enters the studio to record a 3 song promo EP. Two songs of these sessions will appear on the 'IJssel Stroomt Over' sampler, which will be in the goodie-bags at Eurosonic 2010. The band plays at "De Doorbraak" bandcontest, and ends up 3rd in the finals...
