Description

Few artists arrive with a debut defined less by ambition than by necessity. TP Le Green is one of them.

In the summer of 2021, Tim Beernaert lost his four-year-old son, Rinus. The event fractured time, language, and routine. What followed was not a calculated return to music, but a compulsion: long nights at the piano, more than a hundred songs written in a half-conscious state, music as a way to survive grief rather than transcend it.

At first, these songs were never meant to leave the room. Gradually, they did. Friends and fellow musicians heard something raw and unfiltered in the material. Artists such as Jonathan Jeremiah, Baloji, and members of The Kooks responded to its emotional directness. Joost Zweegers (Novastar) reached out.

What began as a private act of mourning slowly took shape as TP Le Green — a name that folds biography into tribute: T for Tim, P for Pini, Rinus’s nickname, and Green, a quiet nod to both his son and soul singer Al Green.

Recorded at the storied La Frette Studios outside Paris — a space synonymous with introspective, latecareer statements like Nick Cave’s Skeleton Tree — The Extraordinary Story of … bears the weight of its setting. Beernaert is joined by an understated but formidable cast of collaborators, including Joost Zweegers, Bruno Fevery (Arno, Kyuss Lives), Nicolas Thys (TaxiWars), and Keith Prior (David Gray). The arrangements are spacious and patient, allowing silences to speak as loudly as melodies. Nothing feels rushed; nothing feels ornamental
