On stage, Blanks truly comes to life: guitar-driven pop, lots of interaction, and a spontaneous feel-good atmosphere all come together through the joy he radiates with his band. His shows also revolve strongly around connection: Blanks has built his community himself from day one and still wants to show that you can chase, and achieve, your dreams. The new show sounds more mature and pushes the boundaries a bit more, but it retains exactly that warm, optimistic vibe he’s known for. Expect new songs, stories from his time in the US, and an artist who, in everything he does, shows why he still is, now more than ever, Excited About Music.
BLANKS
Indie-pop with an optimistic, melodic sound
Saturday 21 March 2026
Blanks is the artist project of Dutch songwriter and producer Simon de Wit. He built his fanbase through social media and thus found his own place in indie pop, both within and outside the Netherlands: a colorful mix of catchy pop, retro influences, and “excited about music” energy. Over the past year, he has been co-writing behind the scenes on a series of major hits, including Atlas by Pommelien Thijs and Nog Even Blijven by MEAU & Douwe Bob. After an intensive year of writing all over the world (from Nashville to the Bahamas), he is now consciously stepping back into the spotlight with a new album set to be released in the spring of 2026.
