Van Dik Hout – 30 Jaar Stil In Mij

Van Dik Hout has been a household name in Dutch pop culture for three decades and this year celebrates the 30th anniversary of their iconic hit 'Stil In Mij'. After the exuberant kick-off earlier this year in a sold-out AFAS Live in Amsterdam, a large-scale tour throughout the Netherlands follows and they are far from finished playing!

“In addition to an unforgettable evening in AFAS Live, we are really looking forward to celebrating this special anniversary of 'Stil In Mij' in the clubs with our fans. It is a unique opportunity to look back on three decades of music together with our fans,” says Van Dik Hout.

The summer of 1994 was the summer of 'Stil In Mij' and marked Van Dik Hout's big breakthrough. They subsequently won many prizes and awards and around the turn of the century, 3FM listeners voted the song the best Dutch-language single of all time. The band continued their success with hits such as 'Alles Of Niets', 'Meer Dan Een Ander', and 'Tot Jij Mijn Liefde Voelt', and more recently with 'Één Nacht Eeuwigheid' and 'Op De Golven Dansen Wij'. As part of De Poema's, together with Acda en de Munnik, they scored hits with 'Mijn Houten Hart' and 'Zij Maakt Het Verschil'. Over the years, Van Dik Hout has performed at all major Dutch festivals, including Pinkpop, Lowlands and Concert at SEA, and has completed successful club and theatre tours throughout the Netherlands. In 2021, their contribution to Dutch music was awarded the Golden Harp.

There are few bands that last more than a quarter of a century. The number of bands that still make music with the eagerness of a young dog after such a period can be counted on one hand. Van Dik Hout is such a rarity. A Dutch pop institution that is proud of its musical past, but has always continued to look ahead.
