About Me


This last year (2006) I have been working on some new songs in a more popjazzy style. The songs you hear on this myspace are a result of this. Actually, i took a little musical risk here by recording these new songs on CD and DVD for a live audience while only have rehearsed them twice!! But I wanted to let you hear some stuff in this summer.
I started songwriting at the age of 14 in the intimacy of my own bedroom without the intention of ever getting up on a stage. but that changed in 1992 when I became the bass player in a rockband. For 3 years we toured around in Europe visiting all sorts of cities, villages and events.. A great time..
In 2002 I set off with Marcel Broekman, Henk Pool and Rob Vemeulen to produce a demo. The demo was mixed by Tjeerd van Zanen. In October we released the demo, went round a record company ECOVATA and got a record deal which led to my debut album 'Found'.
Marcel Broekman produced 'FOUND'. Thanks to a whole lot of excellent musicians I dare to say 'FOUND' became a pretty awesome record.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
