In the run-up to our 50-year anniversary in 2022, Paard chooses 50 iconic artists, out of the complete program, that we see as ‘Heroes’. With this label we put artists that have played an important role in pop history in the spotlights, and place them in music-historical perspective. Read the bizarre trivia, the anecdotes, the personal stories and why especially these artists plays in The Hague.

Everyone can collect them with the original Heroes-map! The only thing you need to do is purchase the Paard Heroes Map for €2,50. For more information please visit  www.paard.nl/paard-heroes/

THE JOE COCKER HITS – performed by Joe’s band

Rock legend Joe Cocker is no longer among the living, but his songs are immortal. Courtesy of band members Cliff Goodwin, Mitch Chakour and Deric Dyer which shared the stage for many years with Joe, the songs of Cocker are still alive. The band members wanted to keep the legacy alive for the fans, and perform the songs in the most authentic way possible. A ‘mission impossible’ you may think, because who can match the raw voice of Joe? Well, they found the English rock singer Elliot Tuffin, a singer who got most of his inspiration from Joe Cocker and has remarkable vocal similarities with his idol. This all makes ‘Cocker Rocks!’ a true reincarnation of the soul of Joe Cocker!
