SuperStation is big rock from the low lands
SuperStation is a band that goes back to the eighties and nineties. At that time the band played under the name Bullithead along the various rock venues in Utrecht and North-Brabant. The band’s name was deviously “borrowed” from a song from the first Van Halen bootleg from ’76. It covered the whole meaning and referred to one of the most important musical roots.
The four-man formation built up an attractive “big rock” repertoire with their own songs, supplemented with the unknown Van Halen material from the bootleg. Until the moment when the roads literally grew apart.
The drummer, Raoul Cannemeijer, moved to Switzerland and the other three members: Taco Vledder on guitar, Dirk Pauwels on bass and Jeroen Philippi on vocals, continued the route to other projects.
After many years of wandering around, we found the creativity again in early 2018 to put together new fresh song material with a new drummer, Harry Janssens. And although we have our roots in bands like Van Halen, Thin Lizzy, Rush and Deep Purple, the music sounds far from outdated.
It is mainly these sources of inspiration that form the basis for coloring outside the lines here and there and making the song material sound right in 2020. It also prompted us to change the band name from the more rebellious and “in your face” Bullithead to the energetic and “for the ears” SuperStation.
