In 1999 members of the Dutch band Rust! started playing acoustic versions of Bowie songs at Dutch David Bowie Fanclub meetings. Among the songs they played were The Man Who Sold The World, Seven, Hang On To Yourself, Outside and a country version (!) of The Hearts Filthy Lesson, re-named Oh Ramona.

Reactions were great and after disbanding Rust! in 2001 they started playing the songs full set up. At that point the band consisted of:

- Hans "Dicky" Schlatmann (vocals and acoustic guitar)
- Marcel "Micky" Cornelissen (guitars and backing vocals)
- Willem "Ricky" Driebergen (keyboards and backing vocals)
- Wilfried "Wicky" Koster (bass)
- Wouter "Licky" Menken (drums)

They chose ch-ch-Changes as their bandname.

Enjoying what they did, getting better at it all the time and getting a really great response from Bowie fans and music lovers all around Holland, they started adding songs like Ziggy Stardust, Look Back In Anger, Let's Dance, Survive, Golden Years and Station To Station to their set.

In December 2003 ch-ch-Changes changed their name to EchoBowie for mysterious reasons. Now sort of a fanclub meeting house band, gigging more and more around Holland, continually adding songs to their over 30-song Bowie repertoire, you should just go out and see them. So check out forthcoming gigs of EchoBowie and have a great night!
