The brainchild of singer/songwriter Wannes Cappelle, ever-revolving Belgian indie rock outfit Het Zesde Metaal formed in 2005. Born in Wevelgem in 1979, Cappelle has become renowned for juggling his music career with several ventures into theater, performing in critically acclaimed productions based on subjects as varied as the First World War and manic depression as well as writing for the children's show Ik Verzamel U. Also a member of Dutch group Roosbeef, Cappelle released his first record as part of Het Zesde Metaal in 2008 with Akattemets and followed it up in 2012 with Ploegsteert. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi
