Helped on stage by guitar player Teuk Henri, Sharko toured those three countries in 2000 and gained a reputation as a live act.
Produced by Mike Mogis (from the American band Bright Eyes), Meeuws 2 includes "I Went Down" which became an underground hit in Belgium, the Netherlands and France.
In February 2004, Sharko played with fellow bands Ghinzu and Girls in Hawaii a sold out Ancienne Belgique in Brussels.
Instead of this, the trio entered in contact with producer Dimitri Tikovoï (Placebo, The Horrors, Goldfrapp) to start the recordings of their fourth album.
Being unsatisfied with the global reception of the album he considered being his best to date, frustrated not to get enough airplays on the radio, David Bartholomé then throws himself into a lengthy "hometour", doing concerts at people's home playing adapted acoustic versions of Sharko songs.
The album contains a lighter "reggae" version of "When I Was Your Age" (an ode to Justin Bieber) which finally gains airplays in Belgium.
