About

Who, or what, is Bumble B. Boy!? Ask kids at your local park, and they’ll tell you Bumble B. Boy is a failed children’s entertainer who you’ll often find at birthday parties wearing his trademark beekeeper’s suit. Ask any music industry insider, and they’ll tell you Bumble B. Boy is the most bizarre festival sensation in the Netherlands (and beyond), taking over stages at Best Kept Secret, Dauwpop, Down the Rabbit Hole and Into the Great Wide Open last year with a unique blend of theatrics, storytelling and electric punk energy.

Ask Tom Harden, the creative director and the titular Bumble B. Boy himself, and he’ll tell you that Bumble B. Boy is a famous children’s icon and media personality (or, is soon to be…).

For now, what we know for sure is that Bumble B. Boy is an art-punk musician and failed children’s entertainer, clawing his way into a successful career in the children’s media landscape. From putting on jaw-dropping theatrical live punk shows, to helplessly producing a children’s TV show, Tom Harden of Bumble B. Boy has his heart set on making a name for himself, no matter what!
