Organic and lively songs interlaced with creative fingerpicking are the trademark of songwriter Banner.
He writes atmospheric pieces of music that convey a deeper meaning within their universal message. The topics range from relationships between people and his own psychological state, all the way to daily life itself. His debut EP Over Blue has gathered more than 500,000 streams on Spotify alone and all its three singles have been curated into the Dutch New Music Friday playlists. Since their release in April of 2017, the songs have been played live over 50 times. In The Netherlands as well as Germany, with band and solo. Vulnerably and intimately he strips the songs back to their essence during his solo shows. In contrast, the band shows fill the room with spacious and bombastic sounds but at times form an infinitesimal and quiet musical landscape where the tension is palpable in the air.
The music is reminiscent of music greats like Nick Mulvey, Ben Howard, Fink and John Martyn. Banner. has done solo support slots for sold out shows such as Newton Faulkner and Rhys Lewis. In February of 2018 he toured in The Netherlands with Tame Impala drummer Julien Barbagallo.
