Biography
"I'm a fan", said Vanessa Vanhove of Radio 2 show "De Lage Landen" about the new single "No Matter What".
It was included in the play list of this biggest Belgian radio station for multiple weeks and is now being promoted for international airplay.

“I love the driving drum beat in this song. This definitely has a Fleetwood Mac feel that I enjoy very much. “ - listener on the 2015 single "Fires&Earthquakes"


Originally from near Leuven, Belgium, Carl Durant went for a musical adventure in San Diego, CA that ended up lasting 11 years.

He developed a European sound (think Ed Sheeran) infused with the west coast songwriter influence of Jason Mraz, Tom Waits and the likes. We call it "cinematic pop-rock".

“Durant is a solid songwriter, with a lot of potential”
- San Diego Troubadour.

About the 2015 single "Fires&Earthquakes", just as the current single recorded with Grammy winning Alan Sanderson, listeners say:

“Awesome acoustic sound…[...] I could see this song in a Quentin Tarantino movie”

“Good vocals. Catchy”
