Nobuts ('no buts!') is a christian nederpop/rock (dutch pop) band from the Netherlands, formed in 1990. The current lineup consists of Nico Knibbe (vocals, acoustic guitar), Haite van der Schaaf (bass, keyboard), Edo van der Maas (lead guitar) and Wytze Woudsma (drums).
Influenced by U2, the band originally started as an English rockband, but their main song language slowly changed into Dutch. They launched their first two albums in 1995 and 1997; their 1997 album being their first Dutch album: 'Dansen op het water'. After touring through Denmark, the band wrote two theater shows: 'In Via Sacra' (about Jesus' suffering) and 'Hier ben ik'. 'In Via Sacra' inspired the band to complete their third album: 'Totdat het licht wordt', which was launched in 2000. The fifth album, 'Als alles is gezegd', was launched in 2004.
In 2005, the band's lead singer Nico Knibbe wrote a book about the band: 'Zonder wind zit alles tegen'. The book contains 30 song lyrics, the stories about how the songs were created and what the real thought behind the songs is. Stories about their mission and passion, about love and cancer, about suffering and faith. The first acoustic album of the band was released in 2005 as well, also being called 'Zonder wind zit alles tegen'.
Nowadays, Nobuts has two styles, making rock- and acoustic songs. Nobuts is a band with a mission, but only one for those who take the time to listen.
