Ton Scherpenzeel (born 6 August 1952) is a Dutch keyboardist, composer and lyricist, best known as a founding member of the progressive rock band Kayak. In addition to his long career with Kayak, he has been part of the British band Camel, spent several years performing with Earth and Fire, and released multiple solo albums. Beyond his work in rock music, he contributed to the Dutch vocal project Opus and served as the accompanying keyboardist for Dutch comedian Youp van ’t Hek. Scherpenzeel co‑founded Kayak with Pim Koopman and Max Werner, whom he met while studying at the Hilversum College of Music. The group evolved out of an earlier student band, High Tide Formation, in which Scherpenzeel originally played bass guitar. He is the only member to appear on every Kayak album. His role in the band extends far beyond keyboards: he composes much of the music, writes lyrics, and plays accordion, occasional bass guitar — notably on the entire Nostradamus album — and double bass. He also contributes backing vocals and performed lead vocals on “Love’s Aglow” from the original Merlin album.
