Biography
February 2006: Ian Clement, Sylvester Vanborm and Dries Hoof make their first live appearance as Wallace Vanborn, an eager and young three-piece rockband bringing a mixture of stonerrock and sexy, stripped down electronics. A magical formula that soon provided the band with a solid live reputation and the current nickname “Pletwallace” (Pletwals = the Dutch word for steamroller). After a couple of demotapes and a 5-track EP the band released their critically acclaimed debut “Free Blank Shots” in Belgium early 2010. The album hit the web, sprung airplay for the first singles and resulted in tours throughout the United Kingdom, the Benelux and along the USA Westcoast. In november 2010, Free Blank Shots was released in The Netherlands, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, followed by a European tour with Blood Red Shoes and a mindblowing performance at the Eurosonic Showcasefestival in Groningen! In their own words, Wallace Vanborn eagerly bring their audience hard, rocking music which is edgy yet danceable, with some tasty hooks and catchy refrains thrown in for good measure.
