Normaal
Normaal is a rock band from the Netherlands, more specifically from the Achterhoek region, who sing in Achterhooks, a local variety of the Low Saxon language group.
Bennie Jolink, who was an Arts education student stationed in Amsterdam in the 1970s, started the band in 1975 as a reaction to disco and glamrock, in addition to the overall "Dutch snobbery" towards people from the Low Saxon-speaking regions, and use of the English language by many other Dutch artists.
The band has since gained national fame, and have had more top 40 hits in the Dutch chart than any other Dutch band.
Despite this fact, the band never reached number one.
The music could be typified as "heavy country rock", and possibly as a rowdier version of ZZ Top.
