New single for former youth champion Rick Folkers!
On his 25th birthday, Rick Folkers launched his new single 'The most beautiful pearl'. The song was written by his girlfriend Romana van der Linden. And yes, that is indeed the singer who had a big hit in 2017 with 'If you could earn your money by lying'. The single released by record label D-River Music is full of the old-fashioned pirate sound!
The singer from Leeuwarden previously recorded his songs with Manfred Jongenelis, but because of the chosen pirate sound, according to the former KNMV youth champion, there is only one producer who stands head and shoulders above the rest, namely Martin Sterken.
“He knows how to bring back the times of the past with his productions. I still enjoy Arne Jansen's songs and therefore wanted to record a record in that style. The song is about love. You meet someone and a relationship develops that is sealed with a child. Because I always use the word pearl when I see a beautiful girl, Romana has woven that into the text. It is also the first time that she has written a text. I think she did that very well. It is a special gift to put something like this on paper. In the end, Martin only changed a few words. In any case, I am very happy with the new path I have taken with this,” beams Rick.
With this single, Rick's tally reaches four (4). All these songs were supported with a video clip shot by Karl Kaspers of Kaska Producties. “A good friendship has now developed. That is also the reason that 'The beautiful pearl' appears on his label. The clip was recorded in the old zoo in Emmen. Nowadays it is a beautiful city park,” says Rick.
