V-Raven, "a rock drummer on singer-songwriter path," creates quirky Indie-pop/rock songs. With his message, he takes you into his thoughts and emotions about the everyday to humanity. With his unique sound, he takes you on a musical journey of feelings on guitar and with his beautiful voice. He has released albums Beflections (2022) and Run Dive Train Dream (2024). V-Raven has been compared by audiences to Novastar, REM, Radio Head, Life and Porcupine Tree.

V-Raven, "a rock drummer on a new path!". After an education at the Hans Cleuver Drum School of Art (The Hague) he is drummer and composer in Belgian Indie-pop and -rock acts (highlights; support act The Rasmus during 'Dead Letters' tour (KUNDA, 2004) and UK tour 'Sexy when Violent' with The One Jaded (2006)) and finds his way to Rotterdam through love. There he starts avant-garde rock act SHARK INFERNO together with Paulie Danger (USA) in 2008 and releases 19 LP albums.

After more than a decade of SHARK INFERNO, it is time for both to do something new, each on their own path. In 2022, V-Raven is launching his own story and sound. His musical experience and singing talent come together in writing, composing and performing as a singer-songwriter and results in 2 released albums; Beflections (2022) and RUN DIVE TRAIN DREAM (2024).

His songs reveal a protest voice, questioning our society and its humanitarian grounds. He also draws motivation from his personal life and that of loved ones, which has difficult and happy moments. Of course, he does not leave out songs about dreams and love. In doing so, he balances his albums and performances. His love for rock music creates a distinctive mix of pop and rock in his songs.

This makes his songs personal and gives them a unique sound. Everything you hear on his albums, V-Raven plays and sings himself. Solo on stage, his songs come across as surprisingly different. Sometimes small and vulnerable, but also powerful and swinging. V-Raven; "From how my audience responds to my music, I get a great feeling and that makes who I am. I love to take you with me!".
