Looking for an atmospheric and cozy acoustic act?
With De Blonde Tornado you get a singer and guitarist who effortlessly switches from a relaxed beginning to a full-blown sing-along party. Perfect for get-togethers, birthdays and weddings where atmosphere and conviviality are a must. Classics, 90s, 00s, but also Dutch party music. Something for everyone.
How nice that you landed on my artist profile!
In everyday life people know me as Wouter, but on stage I am The Blonde Tornado: a singer and guitarist who creates atmosphere, recognition and ultimately a sing-along party where everyone joins in.
What can you expect?
- A broad and recognizable repertoire, from classics to modern hits
- Timeless songs by Johnny Cash and Boudewijn de Groot, among others
- Acoustic covers of 80's, 90's and 00's hits that everyone knows
- Dutch sing-alongs and guilty pleasures
- Famous pop and rock songs that invite you to sing along
- A natural build up from relaxed background music to an energetic sing along moment
- Interaction with the audience and possibility to make requests
- Flexibility in style and
volume: from intimate and quiet to exuberant and festive
- A performance that adapts to your moment and audience
My performances can be flexible. I often play two sets of 45 minutes in which I start quietly and work towards an increasingly energetic atmosphere, resulting in a sing-along party at the end. In between I talk the songs together in a loose and relaxed way, with room for humor and interaction.
Whether you're looking for background music at a get-together, a cosy interpretation of a birthday or garden party, or just a special moment during a ceremony: I will tailor my performance to your wishes. From intimate and quiet to exuberant and festive.
I bring my own sound equipment, suitable for living rooms, gardens and smaller venues, among others. Thanks to my battery-operated set, I can even play in locations without power. For larger events, we will look together for a suitable sound solution.
My goal is simple: provide atmosphere, recognition and a successful moment that people look back on with pleasure.
Are you interested or want to discuss what suits your party or event best? Please feel free to contact me. I like to think along with you.
Hope to see you soon!

Performance during our bachelorette party dinner of the blonde tornado was super! Nice music, requests were played and of course ended with a dance!
, Marvin en Tessa
Incredibly pleased with Wouter's performance at our wedding reception. The Blonde Tornado plays fine classics as well as the more "wrong hits" and requests. Ideal for our get-together and we are very happy with our choice of Wouter. We received many positive reactions from our guests. Improvising Berend Botje for our son at the end made it complete! We had very good contact beforehand to discuss all our wishes. Wouter is very flexible and thinks along with us. We highly recommend Blonde Tornado!

Wouter (De Blonde Tornado) provided a super fun evening during our Christmas drinks party. He took care of the last part of the music quiz and afterwards he continued with his own performance. Hats off for the flexibility in possibilities in terms of performance! Afterwards only positive comments from colleagues. We will book you more often!

The blonde tornado beautifully framed my birthday party with his performance. Requests went through the room on beer mats and there was good dancing. Wouter plays both old hits and more modern sing-alongs improvising effortlessly it seems. Both old and young had a great time and I received many compliments for the chosen artist.

For an hour, the 332 colleagues of the municipality of Roosendaal enjoyed a delightful performance by De Blonde Tornado. With his extensive repertoire, flexibility and fulfilling request songs, he is a multi-talent who effortlessly entertains a wide audience with his incomparable voice and outstanding guitar playing. The Blonde Tornado is highly recommended and contact with him is approachable, smooth and accommodating. A fun, good singer and also an excellent entertainer who senses what the audience wants. De Blonde Tornado from Breda should not be missing at any party!

It was great!!! What a fun, good artist!!! Wout came to play in our restaurant, just alone with his guitar. He had an incredibly nice repertoire and can sing well! Guests and we enjoyed! The Blonde Tornado may come more often!!! Really highly recommended!

Als start van ons vriendenweekend heeft Wouter een heel gezellig optredenverzorgd. De sfeer was meteen top en het dak ging eraf! Genoten en echt een aanrader om op deze manier een super leuke avond met je vriendengroep te hebben!

Agreed in advance that Wouter would provide some quieter background music during the barbecue and close with some party. This was perfect! Top music, good voice, adapted perfectly. Highly recommended!

Wouter gave a performance at a birthday party. Good build-up in terms of atmosphere and good choice of songs. It was really good and at the end everyone sang along. Highly recommended!
, Daphne
What a party! Wouter knew exactly what our group needed and completed our garden party. My guests were very impressed. Thank you so much and I hope to see you next time!

The Blonde Tornado came to perform on my 40th birthday and we really enjoyed ourselves. Super nice voice, nice mix of songs and felt the mood well. Top!

Wouter is a versatile, cheerful and good artist who knows how to create a fantastic atmosphere with his extensive repertoire At our year-end party for colleagues, The Blond Tornado stole the show and left a crushing impression. Although he is not well known in West-Brabant yet, he is an artist that you definitely want on your event. I personally think that the price he asks for his performance is not in line with the market. He is worth much, much more than what he asks! So we are going to recommend him everywhere and book him again next year.

Lots of humor, good music!

Very successful, good performance
, Daphne Schouten
We had booked Wouter for our wedding reception. We used to run into Wouter at the Bruine Pij, where he worked and where we met as a couple Communication went smoothly, he had rehearsed a request for a song and the performance was great! It brought extra atmosphere to our beautiful day. So if you have a party, be sure to invite him, you won't regret it!

We booked the Blonde Tornado for a bachelor party. He did a great job

Wouter (the blond tornado) was really great. Communication was immediately very pleasant (from booking the moment until the evening itself). He felt the evening perfectly. Very nice various songs (Dutch/English) that appeal to everyone (young and old). Nice pure voice that doesn't seem loud. Really immediately made it a party. The guests could chat but there was also dancing. Had a lot of positive reactions from the guests present. Was the first time we had hired someone and thanks to Wouter a great success! Thanks again Wouter! Who knows until next time.

Wouter gave us a very good performance, we were very happy with it. Partly because of his performance our party was a great success, many compliments received from the guests. Wouter knew very well what our wishes were. He more than lived up to it, thank you Wouter you were great.

Well in time and pleasant communication. Open for request numbers. Create a good atmosphere. It was a great party!

The Blondo Tornado has met all our expectations! A living room party where he enters very relaxed, announces himself (in a very original way) and plays a set with a good feeling for the moment. And indeed, as it says on the site, at the end of the party he sings along and has created an exuberant atmosphere. Wouter, thank you!

The blonde tornado came to our house for a 40 year anniversary party. The performance met all our wishes. In the beginning he played as background music and ended it as a real party. He feels the atmosphere well. We recommend the blond tornado to everyone.

The Blonde Tornado, started playing at our wedding dinner. From the first song the atmosphere was already good! Later when the evening guests came in, he played more upbeat songs to warm everyone up for the party night, with success! From all the guests we only got compliments and we will definitely recommend Wouter to anyone looking for a singer/guitarist! Thanks Wouter!

The Blonde Tornado performed at the party for my 30th birthday. We briefly went over what I wanted in advance and he gave it a perfect interpretation. All the guests were very enthusiastic: with his song choices he provided a lot of coziness and extra dances so really recommended to book!
, User
Good performance. He came 30 minutes earlier before the required time to prepare everything. Our guests really enjoyed the songs he played

For our volunteer evening of VSCO'61 on 25 May 2018 we had booked The Blonde Tornado. This turned out to be a perfect match. The performance of the Blonde Tornado matched very well with this evening. Good choices in the songs and a beautiful voice. Not too dominant so everyone could talk to each other normally. As said, a great addition for a successful evening. The contact both before and during this evening was fine, no demands, flexible and good thinking about the interpretation of the evening And all this for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!

A nice performance! Thank you so much!

Sunday afternoon the Blonde Tornado gave a living room concert for my fiftieth birthday. My girlfriends and I enjoyed his songs and the way they were performed. It turned out to be an unforgettable afternoon - thank you!
, User
The performance of De Blonde Tornado was a great success! Not in the easiest place; in an Atrium, surrounded by people having lunch who, because of that lunch, didn't necessarily have all the attention for the performance. Not that Wouter let himself be held back by that; with a combination of covers and his own songs he played happily on and looked for interaction with the audience in a modest way. This regularly resulted in a heartfelt applause or even singing along; a great performance within these difficult circumstances! Wouter's flexibility and pleasant cooperation in the preliminary stage as on the day itself, are certainly an advantage! As far as we are concerned, certainly worth repeating!

What a great garden party yesterday. Every now and then the rain came out of the sky and then the sun was shining again, there were more than 100 people, but the real atmosphere maker was The Blonde Tornado. We had asked Wouter to give the party extra atmosphere with the music and we succeeded. We had a lot of positive reactions from all the guests, great! Wouter thought along well with us beforehand, felt perfectly what we wanted and was clear in the communication. He kept all appointments, was on time etc, also nice! If we give another party, I already know who we ask for the music ?

You may think you can't book a good artist for that money, but the blonde tornado changed that for me! Pure voice, sings English, Dutch and sing-alongs! Feels like when a song needs a bad atmosphere. He was also present an hour and a quarter before the start time. So very neat. My evening is made complete. He's definitely worth the money!
