The Music

Well, how can we describe the music of Vertical Reality? Hmmm, well....
Ok, listen to: Neil Young, Van Morisson, Dire Straits, Captain Beefheart, Jethro Tull, delete a little (or much?) of their talent. Mix it together. And there you have it. Call it alternative pop-rock music if you like

The Lyrics

We've always tried to bring something more than just "I love U" or that kind of crap. Look around you. There's so much more. The lyrics of VR are about life, pain, war, hope, love, religion, friendship etc.
We've tried to give the listener something to think about. You can read the lyrics of the cd Beyond Infinity on this page. Want to know more? Mail me!

The Band

Well it's about time to reveal ourselves: From left to right on the photo:
Hanneke Wubs : She played the keyboards in the band. Right now she's studying to become a teacher (ages 4-12)
Henk de Boer : (That's the one on top). Henk played rhythm guitar in the band. He also draw the cover of the cd. Right now he's doing some vague study. A kind of music therapy. But we still wonder. Who needs more therapy? Henk or his patients?
Philip Koning : That's me who's being crushed under all that weight!. I sang all the songs. Besides that I provided the band with a severe amount of lyrics. Right now I'm a math. teacher in High Shool (or something like that). Allright puke...but it is a real nice job. There are some plans to start a new band in the near future. A kind of a 60's influenced alto-rock band.
Han Uil : The top of the stack. Han played the lead guitar in the band. He also sang the second voice on most of the songs. Believe me, he's good! Han wrote most of the music for Vertical Reality. Right now he's using his talents for the alto-band "The Lounge". He's also trying to get a record deal. If you want to know all of his tries to get famous? Check the Purple Shadow homepage. Besides his musical work, Han is also waisting his talents on a manager study.
Erik van Schie : The youngest of all, but he's the guy who played the drums. Sometimes even crashing them (or was it Han). Right now Erik is studying something (don't know what, but who cares?). Unfortunately he's not doing anything in the music scene right now.
Leo Brouwer : Last but not least the bassplayer. Also the weirdo in the band. Left a song for a beer, if there was any. Right now he's studying to become a male nurse. So I want to warn all people in the Arnhem area. Be very carefull!!! Try not to get into the hospital. Who knows you'll get Leo besides you bed. I'd rather die!!

So that's who we were. Right now you can help us out by buying our cd. for the price of $10 of fl. 15,-. Well that isn't expensive isn't it? Mail me or Han for more info.
