Hi friends/fellow musicians i'm Jacky Van Tongeren, and i'm a fretless Bass and Resophonic guitarist. On my World-Music project "REJJ" I play all other instruments too, such as: Mandoline ("slide"), Pan Flute, Banjo, Guitar, Ethnic Flute, Balafon, Kalimba, Percussion, Drums and Vocals..... I improvise/write music, my tunes are initially improvisations. It's my commitment to improvisational composition and capturing the spontaneous.
