About Me

Hi, I'm a Dutch guitar player/teacher and singer-songwriter who's focus lies on live guitar looping, improvisations and arranging mash-ups.

* I play in the jazz and rock oriented popgroup NEON (www.myspace.com/neonnl).

* I also play in the guitar-looping mash-up trio 1614 (www.sixteenfourteen.com).

* The new rock band HOOK is coming up...

* Earlier I played in Out of Order (1997-2003), Trial (2003) and Unplugged Experience (2003).

* In 2008 I started organizing the Plug & Play band evenings for the Crea Poppodium in Amsterdam and in 2009 I started writing for 3VOOR12/Amsterdam.

* I also run the OpenMinded Muziekschool and organized/conducted three times the 'Changes' rock concerts as well as the 'Jampot/Hutspot' jam sessions and 'OpenMinds' workshops (www.openmindedmuziekschool.nl)

Thanks for checking out my MySpace!
