Paardcafé: Daniel Nolet

'Runaway' EP release.

Friday 6 June 2025

Singer-songwriter Daniël Nolet combines his talent for strong melodies with surprising lyrical perspectives. Pop music is for him a very different calling than his youth years on the soccer field as a goalkeeper; he played for Sparta Rotterdam and attracted interest from clubs like Ajax and Feyenoord. Currently, he plays semi-professional soccer at AFC in Amsterdam at the 3rd level of the Netherlands. At the end of 2022, Nolet won the Grote Prijs van Rotterdam and the title ‘The Promise of Rotterdam’. After his debut EP Carry On, released in 2023, which features the theme of loss as a powerful common thread, Nolet is almost ready with his follow-up. 2024 was marked by studio work and a prolonged concussion, but 2025 will be filled with new music.
