For more than 25 years, Bobo Kool has been the ambassador of soul and funk in Ostend. As a bartender, DJ, and manager of the music bar Lafayette, he brings the characteristic atmosphere of Langestraat to life weekly, with visitors often coming from far and wide to experience the magic. His impressive collection of soul tracks can even be found in the ‘Lafayette’ Spotify playlist that can be played in the hotel room.
