Biography In a few words...
A sexy bite, a pinch of heaviness, a little dose of humour and a few secret
spices make the female fronted Rouge United a rock tour-de-force!
Rouge United have already
scored a number of victories.
They released their first EP in
2011; then won the Grote Prijs
van Twente in 2012; and have
in the past few years heavily
toured both Belgium and the
Netherlands. Not to mention
they have been ever present on
various radio shows, amongst
others Dutch national radio
3FM.
In 2013, the band released their first single - “ON A RIDE” – together with a
videoclip. This song is available on iTunes, Spotify, Bandcamp, Deezer,
Amazon mp3 and Google Play.
The band has since 2011 rallied around founder and guitarist Ulrich
Schadeck and singer JC Wardenaar. Brothers Julien (bass) and Laurent
(drums) De Wolf make up the 4-headed rock chimera!
The quartet’s music philosophy remains simple. Good songs tied with crafted
musicianship and a great stage presence is an art!
No matter where, no matter when, there’s no time to waste. They rock with
style! Just like the lemon after your tequila!

What people say:
Anneke van Giersbergen (Solo artist - Ex-The Gathering)
“Rouge sounds fresh and exciting, just as one would expect from a young new band. I was
privileged to have Ulrich in my backing band during a German tour and I'm happy to see
he's doing so well with Rouge. Definitely a band to keep an eye on!”
Jeffrey Revet (producer - Stream of Passion)
“Good mix of (hard)rock & pop packed in strong songs! Wicked that there’s still some
room left for technical highlights :-)”
Roelie Van Lingen (King Play Music management)
”Knowing where they come from makes Rouge a remarkable band. The songs are catchy.
No nonsense. The singer has a nice lead vocal sound that seemingly effortlessly carry the
solid rock sounds. Rouge Rocks!”
Bert Bennink (KCO coordinator - Programmeur Bevrijdings Festival)
”Songs with catchy hooks, crystal clear production, nice effects. Their third place at De
Doorbraak bandcompetition is a good achievement when you keep in mind that they exist
for only one year. Professional musicians to work with and they have the talent, the
attitude and the persistence that a band needs to achieve more.”
Julian Enequist (Producer - Stefany June)
“Powerful well produced pop songs carried by strong vocals and honest emotions.”
