Memphis Soul Stew staat voor een uitgebalanceerde stoofschotel rijk op smaak gebracht met al die typische ‘Southern’ ingrediënten die samenkomen vanuit de wijde Memphis-Tennessee-regio.
De rauwe basis met het zoutje en het zuurtje is de blues, het zoetje is de gospel, in balans gebracht door de Rhythm & Blues met de aardse tonen van de country.
En in al haar facetten op smaak gebracht met soul, heel veel soul.
De Memphis Soul Stew speelt niet een reeks van de grote hits uit de enorm rijke ‘Memphis legacy’, dit zou ook ondoenlijk zijn; het is een doordacht en uitgebalanceerd menu van meer- of minder bekende nummers, waarbij in ieder nummer de diepte en verfijndheid van de eerder genoemde stoofschotel wordt ‘opgediend’.
Ga mee op deze muzikale (en culinaire) reis naar-, in- en om- Memphis en laat je figuurlijk onderdompelen en meevoeren in de diepe krochten van deze
historische stad.
We verklappen graag wat ingrediënten en smaakmakers in onze receptuur:
Bill Withers, Tony Joe White, BB King, Ray Charles, Willie Nelson, Elvis Presley, Marvin Gaye, The Staple Singers, Otis Redding, Solomon Burke, Ann Peebles, The Holmes Brothers, The Heritage Blues Orchestra en anderen.
Stop deze ‘smaakmakers’ in één ‘melting pot’ en probeer je voor te stellen welke smaakexplosie je gaat ervaren…..
Line up:
• Robbert Fossen : Leadvocals, guitar, harmonica
• Ivan Schilder : Piano, orgel, Rhodes, vocals
• Robbert Smit : Guitar, vocals

De show is geschikt voor (pop)podia, festivals, theaters, bedrijfsfeesten, privéfeesten etc.
Daar waar gewenst en de faciliteiten het toelaten werken we ook met beelden en vertelling tijdens de show.
NB. We hebben ook een 'Memphis Soul Stew Experience' met na de show originele zelfgemaakte Soulfood. (max. 100 personen); vraag ons naar de mogelijkheden.
Reviews
, Eva
Super good duo, what a voice and sound and also very entertaining. Highly recommended!
, Vrienden van de Grote Kerk Gorinchem
As stated in the title, it was a delightful lunch concert in Gorinchem's Grote Kerk on Wednesday, June 25. Robbert Fossen and his fellow musicians play delightful blues and gospel. The explanations were also great. In short: worth repeating!
, Edwin
Absolutely a top-notch band! The contact beforehand was good. On the day itself they were right on time and exuded professionalism. The show itself was beyond expectations and everyone enjoyed it! They knew how to sense the atmosphere perfectly and made it an unforgettable performance. Highly recommended to anyone looking for quality and reliability!

At our wedding, the Robbert Fossen Band played the first part of the party. Very friendly men who can really make great music. We were very happy that they wanted to play with us!

What a top trio a great performance with a lot of passion and fun performed the way the real Blues should be played
, Café The Pocket, Badstraat 38, Katwijk
In Katwijk enjoyed a good blues band that gave a wonderful performance that did not leave the dance floor unused. And also not unimportant, pleasant musicians who do not ask the main price.

Robbert Fossen and his band played the roof of the house on Sunday. It was a Sunday afternoon but that was nowhere to be seen, people flew onto the dance floor and enjoyed the show from start to finish. The finest blues classics passed by and are performed with honor by Robbert and his very good band.
, Kees-Jan
Enjoyed Robbert and his men. Delicious blues, skillfully played and with obvious pleasure. Robbert is flexible and thinks along well what is needed for your party. I dare to recommend the trio to anyone who can appreciate good musicians and blues
, Willie
After consultation with Robbert Fossen, we have chosen to book the trio instead of the duo. This would be more common music and would fit more with the event. This was an excellent decision! They are very flexible and think along well
