Welcome to the un-Official "Vaya Con Dios" MySpace Home.
The story of Vaya Con Dios (a Spanish phrase which means "go with god") started in 1986. The group was formed by Dani Klein, Dirk Schoufs (bass from the rockabilly group The Wild Ones) and Willy Lambregt (guitar player for the Scabs). Their first release, the single "Just A Friend of Mine," characterizes the group with its love for Spanish-influenced music and acoustic instruments. It became an overnight hit (300,000+ copies sold in France) and their career is on the way.
Willy Willy then spent his time with the Scabs (Vaya Con Dios wasn't "rock'n'roll" enough) and the first full album was recorded with session musicians. The singles "Puerto Rico" and "Don't Cry for Louie" open even more doors for the group.
The second album continues the success story (with hits like the melancholicly fantastic "What's a Woman" and the joyous European hit "Nah Neh Nah"). The influence of Spanish flamenco shifts to "old American jukebox hits...with unmistakable influences from gypsy music and French chanson" (Oor).
In 1991, Dirk left the band. Soon afterwards, he sadly died of a drug-related infection disease. "Time Flies," released a year after, is the saddest thus far, with a lot of soul influences, moving across the border to music of Latin-America. The album is entirely a Dani Klein product, making it clear that the group is in fact a singer, a "femme fatale."
According to the record company, this was also the album which had to lift them to the status of superstar, but it didn't. The black but mediocre single "Heading for a Fall" got very heavy "rotation" on MTV but didn't produce a lot of excitement.
The group has built a VERY considerable following all over the world (especially in Germany, France, Greece and Scandinavia) and the band made a very successful tour around the world in 1993.
The 1995 album "Roots and Wings" doesn't change the musical direction of the group drastically (mainly R&B, but this time also with some musical accents from India and Arabian music). It is recorded in the Muscle Shoals Studios in Alabama (the legendary studio for artists like Etta James and Aretha Franklin). The horn section from Muscle Shoals accompanies Dani on her European tour in 1996. Her son (19-year old Simon Schoovaerts) plays the keyboards on stage.
Vaya Con Dios' (2004) most recent studio album, "The Promise," is available on iTunes for $9.99 and at Amazon.com. Make sure to purchase their Best of at Amazon.com, too. Vaya Con Dios recently released an Ultimate Collection, available internationally.
