Love is a word that I rarely use, Bram Vanparys sings on his new cd, and it is so typically him. Despite his young age, he is only 24, The Bony King of Nowhere doesn't like to use themes that have already been beaten to death. leonore' is the follow-up to Record Label: Helicopter Style: Independent

For the recordings of his third album the Ghent singer-songwriter made a retreat to the unsightly Mirwart, a very small village near Saint-Hubert in the Ardennes forests. Freed from the daily humdrum and superficiality he would stay there in total isolation for two weeks to write songs and put them to tape. However, that plan wasn't as spotless as he had hoped. Unsatisfied with the result after eight days (and nights) of recording Vanparys makes a radical decision and mercilessly deletes all his recordings in order to start over afresh. That tabula rasa worked: inspired after two days of wandering about the woods he records the definitive versions of eight out of the nine new songs during one long, creative night. "The Bony King of Nowhere" is the result of that one wonderful night in June. Only the opening track, "Across The River" is an earlier recording that simply could not be missed. Vanparys wrote it almost immediately after the studio sessions for "Eleonore", as a pure and simple counterbalance to the more fully arranged songs on that album. It touched a nerve with anyone who heard it. Encouraged by the many positive reactions that particular song got, Vanparys started to think of recording an acoustic solo album all by himself. In a way, the song proved to be the trigger for this album Record Label: Rockoco Style: Singer/Songwriter
