KANE is a rock band from The Hague, the Netherlands. The band revolves around lead singer Dinand Woesthoff and guitarist Dennis van Leeuwen. After meeting up in 1998 the two decided to form the band KANE.

In 1999 their cooperation results in the debut album 'As Long As You Want This'. The guys received double platinum for this album that was a resident for more then a year in the Dutch record charts. Following up to their debut album is the 'So Glad You Made It' album, which was a smash hit as well. Singles like 'Let it Be', 'Rain Down On Me' and 'So Glad You Made It' al turn into top 10 hits. When award winning dj Tiësto makes a remix of 'Rain Down On Me' KANE get a number one hit with it. Next to 'As Long As You Want This' the following albums 'What If', 'February' and 'Fearless' are to be found on top of the album charts.

At the end of 2007 the band heads for NY to record the new album EVERYTHINGYOUWANT

Dinand Woesthoff tells: "Reflecting on it I can say we made a free fall the past 2 years. In making this album we use a totally different approach then we used to." Just take the first single Catwalk Criminal. 'Catwalk Criminal' kicks in. Puts you on the wrong track. It's a dirty sexy track about animal attraction. A bold statement as a first single: "Listen up, dit is onze nieuwe sound'. But that doesn't have to say there isn't any room for tracks like 'Shot Of A Gun'. Dinand: "Shot Of A Gun is a comfort song. In comparison to 'Catwalk Criminal' it tells listeners the legacy of KANE. This track is so entwined with the past and the new. The song, which was recorded Los Angeles, is the most symbolic on the album on which isn't much room for romance. Dinand: "Like all KANE albums EVERYTHINGYOUWANT is a very personal album. It's personal because it reflects our positive flow. This album tells about relationships, love but above all lust and danger. The sound is cocky and in your face."
