Biyografi

Will Tura is a Belgian singer/songwriter whose popularity in Flanders and The Netherlands spans numerous decades, from the 1960s into the new millennium. Since emerging in 1963 with the hit single "Eenzaam Zonder Jou," Tura has remained a titan of the Flemish music scene, releasing hundreds of albums that cover a wide array of styles, and continuing to tour into the 2020s. Born Arthur Ridder Blanckaert on August 2, 1940 in Veurne, a Flemish municipality in Belgium, Tura's earliest influences include Nat King Cole and Gilbert Bécaud. Proficient on several instruments (piano, guitar, drums, accordion, and harmonica), he began singing at the age of nine and scored his first hit single in 1963 with "Eenzaam Zonder Jou," a classic of Flemish popular music. Over the decades that followed, he experimented with a wide range of styles -- everything from Elvis (Will Tura Zingt Elvis Presley, 1984) and rock & roll (Rock 'n Roll in Mijn Hart, 1991) to symphonic pop (Tura in Symfonie, 1992) and gospel (Tura Gospel, 2000) -- while still writing much of his own material. One of Tura's biggest hits came in 1989 with "Mooi, 'T Leven Is Mooi," released in the wake of a 1988 car accident. Among his latter-day album releases, he reached the Top Ten with Bloed, Zweet & Tranen (1995), Europa (1996), Puur Tura (1997), Alleen Gaan En Andere Slows 87-97 (1998), Ware Liefde (2000), De Mooiste Droom (2002), and Zoals die Zomer van Tien Om Te Zien (2004). He continued to record and tour into the next decade, finding chart success with late-career efforts like 2016's Klein Geluk and the 2017 concert LP Live in De AB. ~ Jason Birchmeier & James Christopher Monger, Rovi
