Besides chasing distant dreams through American rock band The Fuckups – owning all their records – Daniël Dee is chasing tangible ideas through poetry. The Dutch poet entered the literary scene in 2002 when he published his debut collection of poetry 3D, ensued by five more volumes of poetry and numerous publications in literary magazines. In 2013 he became the City Poet of Rotterdam, giving voice to contemporary city life with a rhythmic intensity.
