Acda en De Munnik
Dutch pop duo
Acda en De Munnik (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑɡdaː ʔɛn də ˈmʏnɪk]) is a Dutch cabaret and musical duo from Amsterdam, consisting of Thomas Acda and Paul de Munnik.
The duo's first three albums, which produced some of their most popular songs such as "Als het vuur gedood is", "Niet of nooit geweest" and "Het regent zonnestralen", originated as music for their stage productions. In the late 1990s, the duo formed the supergroup De Poema's with fellow Dutch band Van Dik Hout. In 2004, the duo released the rock opera Ren Lenny Ren, which they starred in.
The duo disbanded in 2015 before returning in 2023 with six sold-out reunion concerts at the Ziggo Dome.

Why this record matters

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 27, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2649712. VIAF identifies the subject as 205467581. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2004, 2015, 2023 and 1989.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
