BASELINE & JOHN ABERCROMBIE

John Abercrombie-guitar, Hein Van de Geyn-bass, Ed Verhoeff-guitar, Hans van Oosterhout-drums

Since ten years now, Baseline creates melodious, intimate and always swinging chamber jazz in various settings with influences from Brazilian styles, folk, classical and pop, carried by the joyful play of Hein van de Geyn. ‘The leader/bassist is a precise technician who solos with an almost poetic sense of melody’, is what Cadence wrote about him. The concerts of this tour will be a happy reunion with Abercrombie who already proved, with his atmospheric guitar sounds, to connect very well with Baseline.
