The DVD is to ben given the rather original title of Wat een avond…live in Caprera and is due for release on the 12th of October.
Their latest DVD release ties in with a brand new single which the trio have out at the moment, the duet with singer Elske DeWall entitled Geef Mij Een Naam (Give Me a Name). The single is to be promoted on both Dutch and Belgian radio, according to the trio’s official website, with promotion starting this Friday with an appearance on the popular Dutch TV show De Wereld Draait Door.
