Share

The Tielman Brothers were the first Dutch Indo band that successfully went international in the 1950s. They were one of the pioneers of rock and roll in The Netherlands. The band was quite famous in Europe, long before The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Their music was later called Indorock, a fusion of Indonesian and Western music, and has roots in Kroncong.
Tielman Brothers has appeared on the Palace of State Jakarta before the President Sukarno. They are the children of Herman Tielman from Kupang and Flora Lorine Hess from Semarang. Their recording career began when Tielman family in 1957 migrated and settled in Breda, the Netherlands. The Tielman Brothers are well known in Europe, especially in the Netherlands and Germany. In Indonesia itself, the name Tielman Brothers is still a foreign name, a fact which is very unfortunate.
Tielman Brothers introduced the first reliable rock music before The Beatles. Action stage they are known always attractive and entertaining. They appear as jumping, rolling, and display the guitar, bass, and drums are gorgeous.[1] Andy Tielman, the frontman, even believed to have popularized the attraction of playing guitar with his teeth, behind the head or behind the body long before the Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page or Ritchie Blackmore.
