Brussels’ Vera Coomans more relevant than ever thanks to Canvas series Putain

Madou is back - though they never truly left - with Vera Coomans still shining at center stage. For some time now, she’s been joined by a new generation of musicians, including her son Thomas Devos. The born-and-bred Brusseleir revisits her classics and presents new work. 

In the early '80s, Madou stood out with a unique, offbeat sound and timeless songs like Witte nachten and Niets is voor altijd. Today, those tracks sound fresher than ever - partly thanks to the haunting soundtrack of the Canvas series Putain, which has introduced Vera to a whole new audience.
