Best Parts

Indie · Ghent
Best Parts create atmospheric indie music with a distinctive twist. The Ghent-based band—Hans Gruyaert (guitar & keyboards), Stijn Anseel (guitar & vocals), Bertrand Lafontaine (bass & vocals) and Tomas De Soete (drums & vocals)—craft songs that invite you to drift away while keeping you moving. Their latest EP, Montana, is a collection of carefully crafted gems, shimmering in the glow of twilight. Radio 1's acclaimed Duyster has championed favourites such as "Broken Dreams" and "Montana", showcasing the band's ability to weave subtle textures into memorable hooks. Think the atmospheric sound of Spain or Real Estate, with influences from Kevin Morby and J.J. Cale. Best Parts have also found their way onto the playlists of Willy radio shows Fuzzbox and Slackerstation. On stage, melancholic introspection blends seamlessly with infectious grooves and unexpected musical turns. Having previously made their mark with bands such as the portables, Autopilot and Dieter Von Deurne, the musicians explore new territory with Best Parts: music that is both intimate and captivating. Let yourself be carried away by their finely crafted melodies and experience a truly memorable live performance.
