Precisely 20 years after releasing the acclaimed Belpop classic Little Things of Venom with his band Arid, Jasper Steverlinck is still going strong … solo. His second album, Night Prayer, not only received nothing but rave reviews last year, with the subsequent tour, Steverlinck played one sold-out gig after another. Remarkably enough though, he hadn’t felt that sure of himself at first: “I thought the music world had forgotten me”, he admitted when the album was released. But the music world had not forgotten the singer-songwriter with the angelic voice, and music lovers certainly hadn’t. Of course, truth be told: Night Prayer, for which Steverlinck recorded every song in a single take, is just impossible to ignore.
