The 45 is a professional live band from the Netherlands, ready to bring the funk to your event. The band is no stranger to some of Holland’s bigger festivals (North Sea Jazz, Concert at Sea). You might also have seen them at one of the Ziggo Dome lounges, where they are residents. Their experience and passion for music are guaranteed to take your event to the next level.

Formed as a study project at the Codarts Conservatory in Rotterdam, the 45 quickly moved beyond the walls of their college to perform in the outside world. With a refreshing mix of contemporary hits and gems from the golden age of soul and funk, they are completely themselves. However, no matter what style or era they are playing, the 45 deliver their material with energy and an obsession for groovy, raw beats that are sure to bring the audience to the dance floor.
