The Radar Station

Biography

The Radar Station was born out of the bands Barefoot And The Shoes and Sun Gods. With their rich, interwoven synth and guitar sections combined with layered drum rhythms, The Radar Station creates its typical sound. A sound reminiscent of indie rock bands like The War On Drugs and The National with echoes from eighties pop songs by Peter Gabriel and Daniel Lanois. The striking, warm, conjuring voice of the lead singer, Brent Buckler, completes the band's sound as a mix of Eddie Vedder, Tom Smith from Editors or Liam O'Maonlai from Hothouse Flowers.

In 2020 they were one of three winners of De Nieuwe Lichting, a contest held by Belgian radio station Studio Brussels to seek out new talent. Their song 'Subtle Science' got picked up by the Netherlands' biggest radio network, NPO Radio 2.
