Last night's gig was bittersweet because we enjoyed it as always, but this was our last show with Janneke de Rooy 😢💔. We are very grateful for the years we spent together in Beyond the Pale 🙏. We have created many fond memories and we're going to miss her.

Our lead vocalist Janneke de Rooy has decided to part ways with Beyond The Pale and focus fully on her other band, Maatkare.
We are sad to see Janneke leave, but naturally we respect her decision. We hope to find a suitable replacement and start the next chapter with a new vocalist. Stay tuned!
