Biography

The Dutch Desert rockers of Drive By Wire offer you an intriguing and unique mixture of fuzzlaiden heavy rock grooves accompanied by the trippy, hazy vocals of charismatic frontlady Simone Holsbeek. Simone and lead-guitarist Alwin Wubben founded the band in 2006, writing songs in their basement for the debut album that immediately grabbed the attention of international press. With Marcel Zerb on bass and Ingmar Regeling behind the drumkit, they are capable of building sonic mountains and psychedelic tapestries of sound. They have been touring through Europe for the last 10 years (Germany, France, Belgium, did several headline tours in Greece and Swiss) played most clubs in The Netherlands (Paradiso, Vera, Tivoli) played with the likes of Kyuss, Blues Pills, Mudhoney, Fu Manchu, God Is An Astronaut and devoured loads of festival stages (Eurosonic, Generatorfest, Dijkpop, Zwarte Cross and Bevrijdingsfestival). Make sure to catch them live; experience a trip to your inner cosmos…and be left Spellbound…
