The musical wunder-years of Rick Astley started in 1987 with Never Gonna Give You Up. This made the top of the charts in the United States and the United Kingdom among others. His other hits followed in quick succession: Whenever You Need Somebody, Together Forever, She Wants To Dance With Me, Take Me To Your Heart, My Arms Keep Missing You and lots more. In addition to his amazing dancing skills on Never Gonna Give You Up, Rick Astley is also well known as an Internet phenomenon. It is estimated that approximately 25 million Internet users have been sent on a wild goose chase with the so-called 'Rickrolling', where users are unwittingly diverted to his comic dance video.

The group recently made its comeback with new group members.

We are familiar with Peter Luts of course as the man behind Lasgo, Ian Van Dahl and Annagrace.
