On July 15th our friend and singer Ian died surrounded by his family after a long and serious illness. We not only lose a great musician and songwriter, but also a wonderful and warm-hearted person who was always an inspiration and driving force for us with his very own unchanging nature. We miss you!
Casper, Marcus, Marrick and Stephan
The Autumn Almanacs are a late sixties inspired band, formed in 2016 and with members from Germany, Holland and Northern Ireland. The lead singer, Ian Maxwell is frontman by KEEGAN, the other members being Casper van Beugen (bass and song writing), Marcus Brand (guitar), Marrick Verhoeven (drums) and Stephan Jacobs (keyboards). The band's debut album was released in 2018 and included 6 songs, one of those being the title track, a mini rock opera called 'All Work And No Play Makes Jack A Dull Boy'. Despite Corona The Autumn Almanacs have returned and released their second album, 'As Far As The Eye Can See', in September 2022. Eleven songs that are short and catchy and that convey the best of late sixties rock music. Think The Who or The Kinks. Songs with memorable choruses and arrangements. Songs that won't leave your head for all the right reasons. The Autumn Almanacs ... sixties, psychedelic, catchy, flower power.
