Veldhuis & Kemper (1997) is a Dutch duo of singer-songwriters and cabaret artists. In the Netherlands, 'cabaret' is a kind of theatre in which someone tells a story or series of anecdotes (personal or critical about politics/society or just hilarious) with jokes and songs.
Remco Veldhuis and Richard Kemper met in 1997 through a mutual friend. In 1999 they became second in the Cameretten Cabaret Contest. They made eight theatre cabaret shows over the years and released seven albums. For their first album (2003) they were awarded with a Golden Record and an Edison Music Award.
