hello.
i'm a guitarplayer from tilburg, the netherlands. i live in amsterdam for quite a while now. besides playing the guitar in the common way, i like to prepare the instrument with all kinds of objects. i also process the signal with some effect pedals, which is lots of fun! i mostly play improvised music but i also compose, sometimes. check the bandmembers column on the left to see what bands i'm playing in. most of them are in my top friends, as well as some of my favourite musicians with whom I've collaborated on some occasions. that's all i guess. hope you like what you hear/see!

the video above is from a concert with the black napkins at the ZomerJazzFietsTour 2009 in a huge barn in groningen. we improvise into a song called melodie 2, written by sanne and myself. filmed by willem minderhout.
the video above is from a concert with onno govaert on drums and my brother bram on guitar and laptop. the concert took place 12.28.2008 at the paradox in tilburg, NL, during the stranger than paranoia festival. this is improvised.
It was nice to meet you, we had a great time in Amsterdam! We hope to come back some time in the future. Thank you for coming to the concert, take care!
I uploaded a new photo and thought it'd make a nice profile pic...but i can't figure out how to do it! Maybe you can? It's a nice one, taken by that American artist who was at our last show, Andrea.
