After being a part of the band for 8 years Nienke Verboom has decided to leave MindShade.

Nienke says: “Being a part of this band has been a great experience but I feel the time has now come to focus on other projects”.

I am no longer able to give MindShade 100% of my dedication and it seems unfair to both the band and myself to continue this way. 

This was the first band I ever joined and it will therefore always have a special place in my heart. I would like to thank Norbert, Jeroen, Mischa and Eli for their friendship and all the warm memories that we share. A special thank you to Norbert and Jeroen for accepting me into MindShade back in 2007 and giving me the opportunity to grow and really develop myself as a front woman.

I wish MindShade all the best in the future and I know they have some awesome new stuff in store for you!”

On the 22nd of January we will be playing a show at Muziekcafe Lokaal Vredebreuk and this will be the Nienke’s last show with us so be sure that you don’t miss it! Auditions for a new vocalist will follow shortly.
