De Kast were a highly successful pop-rock band from the Netherlands in the late 1990's. After a four-year break, the band are back together again for a small number of gigs. Their songs are mainly Dutch, although some songs, like the ballad In Nije Dei, are written in their native language Frisian, which is solely spoken in the northern province of The Netherlands, Fryslân. During the high times of De Kast the band consisted of Syb van der Ploeg (vocals/guitar), cousin Peter van der Ploeg (lead guitar), Kees Bode (keyboards), Sytse Broersma (bass guitar) and Nico Outhuijse (drums).
