Reincarnatus


Reincarnatus is a band from Limburg, Netherlands. They combine pop music with medieval music, using traditional instruments such as bagpipes, reed, fiddle, bouzouki and hurdy-gurdy mixed with pop/rock instruments such as drums, bass, electric guitars and synthesizers, all performed by the band itself. The lyrics are in Latin or in other old medieval European languages, providing a very mystical mood. The band was founded by Renate Dirix and Joyce Hammers in 2005.
