Edward Reekers is a Dutch singer and voice actor. Most notable is his work as lead singer for Dutch progressive rock band Kayak.
Having been a fan of the band for years, Reekers joined Kayak in 1978. He replaced Max Werner, who became the band's drummer. With Reekers as the new lead singer, Kayak immediately scored their biggest European hit single: "Ruthless Queen". The accompanying album Phantom of the Night reached gold in the Netherlands.
Reekers was with Kayak from 1978 until the split in 1982. He sang on three studio albums, and on the live-album "Eyewitness". During live concerts he played occasional keyboards and electric guitar.
He was not involved in the 1999 reunion of the band, but he did make guest appearances at some concerts in 2003. He even replaced Bert Heerink for an entire concert in 2003, when Heerink had other commitments.
In 2005, Reekers re-joined Kayak as one of the singers on their "Nostradamus"-project. When Bert Heerink left the band after the Nostradamus-tour, Reekers was the band's male lead singer again. By this time, female singer Cindy Oudshoorn was also in the band.
Hendrik Evert "Hein" Wigand Boele (born 24 November 1939 in Zwolle, Overijssel) is a Dutch voice actor.
Boele provides the voice of Elmo on Sesamstraat, the Dutch co-production of Sesame Street. Boele also dubbed Gobo Fraggle's voice for Fraggle Rock.
Hero Muller is a Dutch voice actor
Muller performs the voices of Cookie Monster and Herry Monster on Sesamstraat, the Dutch co-production of Sesame Street. Hero took over both roles from the late Peter Piekos, who could not be located at the time.
Cookie and Herry used to sound almost alike; in recent years, Hero has tried to make Herry's voice a bit more nasal.
Unlike the original English-speaking Cookie Monster, the Dutch "Koekiemonster" uses correct grammar in his speech.
