Requests trio Family de Bruyn at your event.

Familie De Bruyn has become a household name in the entertainment world. The various family members bring the musical living room atmosphere of yesteryear wherever they are booked.

Everything on request
Fortunately not for long, because the young De Bruyn scions continued to pop up in the nicest places and they made a name for themselves throughout the country. A number of De Bruyntjes are now rightly regarded as the founders of today's mega-popular request scene.

History Family de Bruyn
In the fifties Kor de Bruyn with his Mientje and their five children formed the first 'Showorkest Familie De Bruyn'. With their piano, some kettles and table lamps under their arm, they turned all weddings, parties and fairs into a fantastic party. Familie De Bruyn always delivered: the concept of playing on demand was born!

The success grew, along with the number of orchestra members. At its peak the family had no less than 16 members on stage. The Easter holidays of 1985 were supposed to bring the final breakthrough, but charity project 'Egg for Africa' under the name 'Bruyn Eet' flopped phenomenally. Rightly or wrongly, the great 'De Bruyn Family' fell apart quarreling shortly thereafter.

Musical blood was crawling where it wanted to go: when relatives from home and abroad came together at Grandpa Kor's cremation, the idea was born for a small traveling band, simply using the familiar name.

Family de Bruyn books
Just like then, the household goods still go with them. With an upright piano, modest drum kit, resounding brass and a couple of cozy twilight lamps Family De Bruyn turns any festive occasion big or small into a musical brown cafe. And traditionally entirely on demand.
