In 2009, I posted an article about Tood Red, containing a few video’s of one of their concerts. The band broke up, but three of the original members started, together with some new musicians, a new project: Maybe June. I consider myself lucky to also be their soundengineer.

The organization of the backyard classics festival was convinced of their music and booked the try out of Maybe June as closing act. Below you find a video of one of the songs of that concert.

Maybe June brings popmusic with a little jazz, soul and funk. You can find more info and book them at their website.

I have been asked by Kunstbende to create and present a workshop on the subject of stage technicals. Kunstbende is an organization for scouting of talent and offers, among others, workshops and coaching for youth.

During the workshop, (starting) musicians will learn how to make a technical rider, what technicians will do during a soundcheck and how to efficiently go through a soundcheck, and what people expect on stage from a musician before a concert can take place.

I will mostly shed a light on the subjects in a technical way. The first time this workshop will be held, Koen Lommerse (Beef, Gotcha Allstars), will join me to explain it from a musician’s point of view.

When there is enough interest, the workshop can be give once more. If you would like to join the next one, please contact me.

Cover Mensergejeniet – Live

Previously you could already hear some songs by the Dutch ska- and reggaeband Mensergerjeniet on this website. Late November their first cd, called Live will be released. While the earlier songs were recorded in a studio, this CD has been recorded by me at concert at SJU in Utrecht, and afterwards mixed and mastered.

When you order the CD before the first one is pressed, you won’t have to pay for shipping and handling. You can order yours on the orderpage.
