Hi, thanks for visiting my site!
I'm an allround bass guitar player living in both The Netherlands and Belgium playing the solid-body fretted and fretless bass guitar, as well as the acoustic bass guitar. No double bass (...no offense).
How it would be nice to start a project of my own one of these days... but since I didn't start it yet (and nobody is doing it for me) I can only throw some names at you.
Here are some national and international artists that I proudly have been (or still am) working with (some shortly, others longer):
Kaz Lux, Trijntje Oosterhuis, Toots Thielemans, Josee Koning, Batida, Ekseption, Ilse DeLange, Karel Boehlee, Toon Roos, Gino Vannelli, Ivan Paduart, Maurane, Kayak, Philip Catherine, Dado Moroni, Victor Feldman, Mike Del Ferro, Randy Brecker, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Peter Herbolzheimer Big Band, Bobby Malach, Peter Hertmans Quartet amongst many, many others...
Presently I'm involved in these projects:
Last but not least I'm also having fun teaching bass guitar and ensemble at the conservatories of Amsterdam and Utrecht since 1985.
And not to forget the annual "Jazz au Vert" in Belgium!
