Reminiscing about nature, nurture, love, as well as simple daily thoughts and observations, Roofman’s music paints familiar pictures. Roofman is the indie project around Dutch songwriter Thijs van der Meulen. Hailing from the forests of the Netherlands, he collaborates with a variety of international musicians to get the most out of every song. Roofman has been signed to record label Clouds Hill (a.o. The Mars Volta, Peter Doherty), based in the renowned Clouds Hill studios in Hamburg, Germany (previous residents including The Killers, Peter Doherty and The Whitest Boy Alive). Debut single Slot Machine / VLT’s – out December 10th – was spontaneously recorded with Canadian indie musician Micah Erenberg (The Secret Beach) in a matter of hours after The Secret Beach’s Hamburg tour stop in October 2021. The debut album was recorded just a month later, with the studio band consisting of American musicians Rhett Shull (guitar) and Philip Conrad (bass) as well as Thijs’ brother Pim van der Meulen (drums). Together with producer Johann Scheerer they have turned the Roofman vision into reality. The album will be released worldwide on Clouds Hill in 2022.
