Still Corona!

We’re still very sad that Corona doesn’t allow us to play live concerts, BUT!: in summer we’ll play on festivals in Germany, Holland and Denmark! See “Concerts”. For next year 2022 we’re invited to the 50th International Dixielandfestival Dresden again, to Schalkwijk (NL) and? Schermafbeelding 2018-02-13 om 11.52.37

In the meanwhile we are looking for a new young talented drummer, because Lielian will leave us to be able to concentrate on her “favourite things”. Thanks Lielian for your great creativity, enthousiasm and super-positive influence on the band!

Corona!

We’re very sad that all concerts of all musicians in Holland are canceled till June 1st. And that all the festivals are postponed to next year, BUT: Hopefully we can join and meet you again next season and bring you stunning performances with a lot of joy again! We can’t wait! In the meantime we’re preparing new songs to enjoy! Keep posted.

* A new idea to develop: we are setting up a new band, called Alice in Jazzyland, especially for our fans, who like the music of the swingperiod more than dixieland-music. Click HERE for the website.

* Amaia went to Spain and South-America and we’re rehearsing now with our wonderful new pianoplayer Mi Jin Kim. We also decided to make a new Video-clip with short fragments of our music. You’ll find the definite plans about it later these months!

amaia-polen-16-3

* Yes! Amaia got her master degree at the Conservatory of Utrecht with a very inspiring final exam. She translated all jazzstandards in Bask language and played and sung it by herself, accompagnied by the nice musicians Hans Mantel-doublebass and Alexis Makatselos-drums. Congratulations!

* Sadly the founder of jazzclub Uden – Edo Stouten – has passed away. A big loss for all, musically as personnally. The jazzclub members unfortunately decided to end all their activities. A sad story.

* Yes, we found a very nice pianoplayer: Mi Jin Kim, from Korea. Welcome!

Singer Marit van der Lei
will join us this year, because Louise has a big project to work on: “Fiere Vrouwen”; a theatrical concertprogram with only female singers, musicians, writers and composers.

Amaia portret

* Our pianoplayer Amaia has plans to live in South-America, so we were looking for a new female pianoplayer, who loves the oldstyle jazz and likes to travel through Europe!
