Frans Kalf is half “Amsterdammer”, half “Gentenaar”, drawing inspiration from legends like Maarten Van Roozendaal, Ramses Shaffy, and Serge Gainsbourg while adding his own playful twist. His music combines honesty with a deep appreciation for life’s everyday and imperfect moments. He captivates by moving, refreshing, and surprising his audience. Always a little different than you’d expect — and often even better than you’d imagine.

With his poetic lyrics, Frans Kalf takes you on a ride through his cynical, yet cheerful world. Don’t be afraid. It won’t be too surprising. Even in this world, there might be some space left for a broken heart or a burst of laughter. We might be out of words. So how do we find those that remain, to say what needs to be said?
