Witloof Bay is a Belgiana cappella group.
In 2005 six friends who all shared a love of jazz, pop, a cappella and beatbox decided to perform as a group. They took their inspiration fromThe Real Group,Take 6,The Swingle Singers andThe Singers Unlimited. The band sing both inEnglish andFrench. The band members themselves also come from all parts of the Belgian kingdom:Wallonia,Flanders andBrussels, thus the group believes they truly represent Belgium as a whole.
In 2008 the group released their first eponymously titled album.
On 12 February 2011, Witloof Bay won the right to representBelgium in theEurovision Song Contest 2011. They took part in the second semi-final, held on 12 May 2011, but failed to qualify for the final, losing out by 1 point.
