Formed in late 2014, The Manneken Pistols have since played 50+ gigs in and around Brussels, in clubs, theatres, bars, outside stages... sometimes to large crowds. The Manneken Pistols are currently 8 players: electric and acoustic guitarists, singers, a bassist, a drummer, a harmonica player and a saxophonist. They are celebrating the 10 year anniversary of their first gig in April 2025. Another student band, The KBH Boogie Band, played five gigs in recent years. ROCKTAGON, an eight-piece band, is newly formed and has played three concerts as of early 2025, with more on the agenda for May 2025. More than 40 musicians have been exposed to live playing with the Manneken Pistols, KBH and Rocktagon bands since 2014. These musicians are a mix of Belgians and expats from all over the world.
Check out the concerts page for info about next student performances and videos of previous gigs too.
The Manneken Pistols, KBH and ROCKTAGON bands rehearse at Novanois rehearsal studios in Brussels.
