Spinvis

Spinvis is Erik de Jong, a Dutchman living in the suburban jungle of Nieuwegein, The Netherlands. A veteran of the Utrecht punk and indie scenes, he started recording as Spinvis in 2001. 2002 saw the release of his eponymous début album, Spinvis, recorded in his attic with computers, samplers, musical instruments and other objects laying around. Most remarkable are his poetic lyrics, that are at times nonsensical and non-consecutive. His third album, Dagen van Gras, Dagen van Stro (Days of Grass, Days of Straw) was released in 2005.
