Knowing their songs and being overwhelmed by their enormous talent, I bought tickets for the Amsterdam performance of their world Tour 2025.

And WOW what a show was that! The whole crowd was dancing and jumping and experiencing something new. With their Dreamy lyrics, tight vocal harmonies, great guitar riffs and perfect groove formed by the drumms, bass and Keybord, they brought the crowd into a unique flow.

Before they started their concert, the father/manager/founder of the family band, John Boyd, opened the evening with a short speech about his children.

They started their family in Detroit, where the parents formed The Boys & Girls Choirs of Detroit. There was always a lot of singing and making music going on in their Detroit home.So they grew up with music all around them.

The members of Infinity song were home schooled accademiccally and musically.

In 2006 the family moved to New York City.
The family has nine children and the choir started out with Victory (left in 2022), Abraham and Angel, later supplemented with the younger siblings Israel and Thalia (Momo).

From before the age of kindergarten (pre-K) they already performed in front of audiences. Their sound used to be mostly classical, jazz and gospel.

The first performances started in 2010 in New York Bethesda Terrace, Central Park, Grand Central station and Times Square.

At Bethesda Fountain they performed 12 years long.

From that point Jeymes Samuel introduced them to Jay – Z after watching the videoclip from their performance in Central Park.

The band had several interviews in TV shows and magazines.

The first time I visited a concert of the band Carreau was some month ago at the Stage 035 festival. The first thing I noticed was their enormous energy on stage. It was wild !
I directly could see that music is totally their thing and they feel at home on stage. It was theirs and stayed theirs till the end. What a performance. I really enjoyed it. The singer runs then to the piano and back to the guitar again and plays it all very well. The other musicians are high level too.

After the show I gave them my compliments and asked if they had a lot of performances every year. Well it seemed that they were doing a lot of gigs in the North of the Netherlands and in the middle (our area). They play at student parties in the big cities, cultural festivals and whatever comes by. And their wish is to start playing their self created music and go everywhere to make big shows.

Carreau was founded in 2023 by a group of musical friends in the drummer’s attic room after meeting each other at work, late nights or in the music industry.

The band consists of 4 members: Gio Wijnschenk (piano and vocals), Luka Krijnen (lead guitar), Boaz Ottink (drums) and Klaas van Dam (bass guitar).

The band is originally a cover band for mainly old-fashioned Rock ‘N Roll, think of Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry or Jerry Lee Lewis. The band has not yet written their own music, but plans to do so in the future.

As soon as the boys enter the stage, they have only one goal: To turn things upside down! That is what Carreau is all about. With high energy on stage, fantastic sing-alongs or perhaps even the most old-fashioned boring songs in a new guise. The more energy there is in the audience. The more Carreau comes into its own
