DJ PHIL JAZZ LOST AND FOUND
Dance till late on hidden treasures & crazy grooves in vintage music.
For ’13 concerts’, Michiel Braam wrote a miniature concert for every one of his 13 band members in which every musician gets his time in the spotlight. The soloists are being pampered or given a hard time. ‘Strong themes, subtle combined play and open minded musicians that truly enjoy performing makes Bik Bent Braam the most exciting music machine of this moment. (de Volkskrant) ‘If anyone needs proof of the vitality of Dutch jazz, he (or she) needs look no further than Bik Bent Braam.’ (All Music Guide).
