Had a great time performing with Wouter Kiers and Ron Walter last Thursday, and
with Jaïr Stunt, John Rijsdijk and special guest Erik Koning yesterday! Also I
decided to share another video of me jamming with myself at home, singing
Cindy Walker's classic It's All Your Fault. Here it is:

A last minute addition to my performance schedule: this Thursday I will join
Ron Walter and Wouter Kiers in the Plantage in Leiden. Ron is a wonderful
singer with a few songs in his repertoire that are usually ignored by other
singers.

What a great weekend with United By Music: three very well-performed and much
appreciated shows; thank you Germany! So what's next? This Thursday I will be
performing with Wouter Kiers at one of my favorite bars: Cafe Ruimzicht, better
known as Red Kees. And as usual, you can join us at the jam session!

This week's shows: Wednesday the most talented students at the music school where
I'm a teacher will present a diverse and unique
spectacle.
This will be a special occasion showcasing many exceptional singers,
instrumentalists and dancers, and I'm very happy to be playing bass and trombone
on some of these performances.
Then in the weekend I'll be off to Germany for three shows with United by Music,
including a Blues Night in Osnabruck.
Other news: Grapes of Grain recently released a new album that has me playing
pedal steel and violin on a few cuts.
I also got to play pedal steel on Pormes's
recent release.
And a few years ago I contributed pedal steel to Kraak &
Smaak's beautiful song All I Need which has now been officially released on their
recent Velvet Seas album.
Please check the discography
section for more details.

Recently I decided to stop using facebook, for numerous reasons but mostly because
I dislike the huge amount of AI-generated idiotic clickbait that kept popping up
everywhere. So if you would like to know when and where I'll be performing and
what I've been up to lately, please check these pages regularly! On this page I
will try to keep you up to date on new shows, new releases and other stuff.
Today two gigs: an afternoon show with the very wonderful Alex Siegers and Tim
Kerssies, and an evening show with Men In Blues.
