Typhoon 2021—Typhoon's music is a celebration with always the message that we are enough: Lobi da Basi! ‘Love rules’ (in Surinam). Together with his rock-solid band and his new album 'Lichthuis' in his pocket, he can't wait to be together with the public again!

Through its colourful, energetic and poetic musical stories, Typhoon takes you into the conversation that is going on in society and shines its light on it. Never pointing fingers, but always connected. In his live shows, this connection is an experience: you are not only taken musically, but also physically into the story he has to tell. Wherever or however you listen to his music; Typhoon touches your soul and lets you move from small and intimate to an energetic spectacle.

Let yourself be guided through Typhoon's Lighthouse and discover, dance and enjoy. From his light house we surf back to 'Tussen Lucht en Licht' and 'Lobi Da Basi'. We celebrate the music, together!
