Rotjoch
Rotjoch
was founded in 1978 by singer/songwriter Ronald
"Rebel" Welgemoed. The band released their first
single "Tomorrow" in 1981. It became a small hit in
The Netherlands. Later that year they released a
second single "Bad Boy" and an album with the same
name. The album became a milestone in the powerpop
genre. Although the single "Bad Boy" didn't sell
many copies it became their most popular song after
it was released on the album Powerpearls Volume 5 in
1999. In 1982 they released a third single "Baby
Baby Baby" under the name Rebel on the French label
VIP-Records. It didn't sell very well either but is
now
very popular amongst powerpop collectors, due to its
rarity. A short time later Rotjoch split. Ronald
kept on performing as Rebel and released two albums,
"You're Already Listening" in 1989 en "The Morning
Sun" in 2007. A few years ago Ronald tried to
organize a Rotjoch reunion but it was very hard to
get all the original members together at the same
time. He recorded some new songs with leadguitarist
Pim Bilderbeek that may be released in some time but
the reunion didn't work out. Ronald had written a
lot of new songs for Rotjoch so he decided to start
the new Rotjoch with some new members that he met at
local jamsessions, Juan Carlos Gieling on guitar and
Pim Meester on bassguitar. He asked drummer Bryan
Hahury, with whom he was playing for about four
years in the band Crosstown, to join the band.
Together they recorded four songs in the Bandstart
Studio in Naarden, The Netherlands. In February 2014
they released the single Sexy/Say No More. Drummer
Bryan quit and was replaced by William van
Veenendaal. They recorded three more songs that are
featured on the
EP Nobody Knows
together with one song from the first recording
session. At the moment Rotjoch has just finished
recording twelve new songs that will be released on
a new album very soon.
