Zita Swoon

They entered the music scene of Antwerp in 1993, still under the name A Beatband with the EP Jintro Travels The Word In A Skirt.

Singer, musician and composer Stef Kamil Carlens founded the group together with Aarich Jespers and also played in dEUS.

The same group released Everyday I Wear A Greasy Black Feather On My Hat under the name Moondog Jr. in 1995.

The success of this album was awarded with invitations to the Lowlands, Pinkpop and Rock Werchter festivals.

[citation needed] In early 1999 their work was recognized by the Flemish government with a grant of 1.5 million Francs and the title Cultural Ambassador of Flanders (a title previously awarded to DAAU and dEUS).
