Bløf (pronounced [blʏf] ; stylised in all caps) is a Dutch rock band founded in Vlissingen, Zeeland, by bassist Peter Slager. It currently consists of Slager, Paskal Jakobsen (lead vocals and guitar), Bas Kennis (keyboards), and Norman Bonink (drums). Former members are drummers Henk Tjoonk and Chris Götte. The band's four members write the music together, but Slager is solely responsible for lyrics. Bløf has been recognised as "by far the most successful Dutch-speaking group of all time" and "the most successful Zeeland group". They were the fourth Dutch band to attain 40 hit singles on the Dutch Top 40, and they have two number-one songs: "Holiday in Spain" with American band Counting Crows (five weeks, 2004) and "Zoutelande" with Belgian singer Geike Arnaert (ten weeks, 2018). The band's first hit was "Liefs uit Londen", in 1998. Drummer Chris Götte was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2001 and succeeded by Bonink. In 2006, they became the first rock band to play in Bhutan, and their concert was the biggest in terms of attendance that the country had seen to date. Bløf has also won eight Edison Awards, including "Best Band in the Netherlands" five times.
