Paardcafé: Ben Red

Ben Red is a Swedish soul singer with a sound rooted in the 1980s.

He and his band offer a moment of escape from reality, combining uptempo grooves with timeless ballads that transport your heart to a warm summer night.

21-year-old singer-songwriter Imme studies songwriting at the Rotterdam Conservatory and makes music for a real listening audience. With a love for jazz, she writes and sings songs that aim to touch the heart, in the style of Norah Jones and Eloise. This year has been packed with music for Imme. She has performed at major festivals and pop venues and even went on tour in England this summer. At the moment, she can often be found in the studio. She is working towards her very first EP, several tracks of which have already been released!
