Meet the true children of rock, the latest testifiers of the revolution, the new rajahs of rock. The Sore Losers is a 4 piece  blues rock band from Belgium. Jan Straetemans (vocals, guitar), Cedric Maes (guitar), Kevin Maenen (bass) and Alessio Di Turi (drums) combined their love for rock, country, blues and garage and brewed it into a deadly exciting rock sound of their own. Raw & pure.

Since the early days (2009) they were compared with bands like The Raconteurs, The Rolling Stones, The Black Keys or The Stooges. Three studio albums later TSL have built themselves a very strong live-reputation that brought them spots on the main stages of renowned festivals such as Rock Werchter, Pukkelpop, Pinkpop,… and many more.
