Avant Garden consists of Maxime and Lucas, two musicians who found each other in their love for alternative music. Their meeting at a music festival turned out to be the beginning of a special collaboration and that's how they came to the idea of playing music together. The click was there right away, partly because they separately have years of experience with performing and making music in different settings.
Maxime and Lucas are both professionally trained musicians who have been active in the field for a long time. In addition to being a singer, Maxime is also an actress. She has her roots in the theater world and in daily life tours the Netherlands with musical and theater performances. Lucas is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who has been performing with various bands for years. He also has his solo project with which he has released several EPs.
Avant Garden mainly plays the gems of the earlier years. Think Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Fleetwood Mac and Kate Bush. But also the more modern songs pass by, from artists like John Mayer and Wilco. These songs are played
with authentic guitar playing and a lot of polyphony in a strong but intimate way.

She played at the reception of our wedding. Praise from the audience and very satisfied herself. Really good. Had a super nice day!

IVY has played 2 acoustic sets on our builoft, completely to our wishes! It sounded good and brought a relaxed atmosphere, the interaction between the 2 acoustic guitars and the singing was beautiful (and what a beautiful singing Famke can do!). Highly recommended!

Nice sound, good voices, nice duo, great songs and relaxed atmosphere. Good addition to our wedding. From our beanbags in the chill corner we were really enjoying and shining. We also did a lovely dance. Matched very well with our setting of the day. Highly recommended and we are going to remember them for the next party.

IVY was truly unforgettable. We celebrated life and love, and as music freaks, the right sound was essential for us. We wanted authentic and pure. We wanted music with capital letters. Real music. We were very happy when we finally found IVY on the internet among many sadly voiced cliché cover bands and heard in the fragments what they could do. We were even happier when they exceeded our expectations live. What can these people play and sing! Not only we but also our guests were very impressed by the great musicality, the purity, and the beautiful own sound. It's very special how Lucas and Famke, beautifully played together, give memorable existing songs a new look. In doing so, they didn't violate the soul of the song, but rather let the songs regularly rise above themselves. They had two songs, 'our' songs, rehearsed for us. So beautiful and touching, they came even closer than the original artist. The sober setting, without too many bells and whistles, but 'just' paying attention to the power of the song, fitted perfectly with the summery and relaxed festival atmosphere that we had in mind. Lucas and Famke themselves also fitted in seamlessly. They turned out to be very warm and modest people with a visible enthusiasm for what they do On the day itself there were already many guests asking who these musicians were. We told them proudly about them. Their names were written down. Our group of friends consists of many real music lovers and they were and still are full of praise about IVY and determined to remember their name in case they are going to give a party. Lucas and Famke played and sang directly through the skin and in the heart that day. (This review has gotten a bit out of hand in terms of length)
