Evert Willemstijn
Bass, Vocals

Comes from a musical family, started out as a singer, but turned out to be the bass player, when the bassist didn't show up at the rehearsal room. From that time he never stopped playing his bass. In the late 70's Evert played in several blues bands, from which Livin' Blues is the most notable. Played with Niko Cristiaanse, Ted Oberg, John Legrand, Philip Kroonenberg and Frenk van Meeteren amongst others. In the meantime he was practicing the doublebass, which led him to different styles such as Jazz, Gypsy, Country, Tango and even Oriental music. He plays guembri (Morroccan bass) and ud which broadens his sight and knowledge in the musical field. He likes to play all styles and whatever the song asks for. Especially likes to play with Denise Marie because her songs are very versatile and strong.

yes the journey continues!!
