Career
In her live shows she was accompanied by her band made up of Kobus Groen (bass, backing vocals), Michi Schwiemann (guitar), Thijs Rensink (drums) and Peter Hendriks (keyboards). Sanne Hans first was part of the formation Ysis made up of her on vocals and guitar, Inge van Calkar also on guitar and vocals and Ilse Gerritsen on the cello. They all had stuttering problems in their speeches, without that deterring their singing.
After Ysis disbanded in 2008, she did advertising features and appeared on various radio and television shows.
She also sang "Dansen aan zee" with Dutch band BLØF and "I Am Sorry" with Dutch band Only Seven Left. October 2008 saw her first solo single "Just a Flirt" followed by a debut album the self-titled Mission Montreal in May 2009 releasing "This is my life" as a second single.
She appeared in a number of festivals including in Lowlands, Parkpop, Beatstad and Zwarte Cross and opened for Coldplay at the Goffertpark in front of 70,000 spectators. She sang "Won"t You Let Maine Have My Way with You" featuring Bertolf Lentink in a joint European Parliament released in 2009 by the two artists.
