New singles - coming soon
Later this year I'm planning to release three singles - the first one, called Astigmatism, will release on the magnificent ZenneZ label on May 15th, and will feature Dutch trumpeter Suzan Veneman as a guest soloist alongside the band. Can't wait!
Asia tour 2026
This year I went to Taipei, Macau and Hong Kong for a month to play with Tijn Trommelen's band, with Stan van de Wetering, Tomek van Leeuwen and Mitchell Damen. An unforgettable experience with these great cats!
Project Haas
"Haas" is title of my new upcoming album. It's a personal record describing the experience I've had with burn-out and recovery.
It features twelve of my compositions divided into four chapters; crisis, the problem, the unraveling and enactment.
Haas features Mo van der Does on alto, Hendrik Mueller on bass, Jeroen Batterink on drums and is to be released digitally towards the end of 2024, and on vinyl in the spring of 2025.

Epilogue
"Epilogue" is my first album released as a leader. It was recorded in 2017 and released in the Roode Bioscoop in Amsterdam in 2019. It's a collection of pieces I wrote during my time in the master's program of the CvA and recorded after my graduation, hence the title.
With Mo van der Does on alto, Matthias van den Brande on tenor, Hendrik Mueller on bass and Ruud Voesten on drums. Click the cover to check it out on Spotify.
