As a result of years of playing in befriended bands, Death By Coconut was formed around the talents of Christof Dunon (vocal, guitar), Christophe Gilen (bass, guitar), Joris Brugmans (synths) and Thomas Vinck (drums).

Based in Sint-Truiden since the beginning of 2017, Death By Coconut spent their first year honing their distinctive sound: a noisy indie mix of melodic guitars, melodramatic synths, supported by a pumping rhythm-section, that invokes names like Pixies, Weezer or even Interpol and Arcade Fire.

In 2019 we won the Emergenza competition in Belgium and had the opportunity to represent our country at the international finals at the Taubertall Open Air Festival in Germany.
