Chiel has been playing covers of well known and lesser known pop songs from '60 but also repertoire from the TOP 2000! After about 25 years of band experience in various companies, both as a guitarist and as a singer, Michiel decides to tour the country as a troubadour.
As troubadour, Chiel comes along and accompanies himself on guitar/mouth organ. The repertoire consists of English songs from the 60s - TOP 2000! Think of protest songs like Blowing in the Wind (Bob Dylan)Testament, Meneer de President (Boudewijn de Groot). But also the beautiful ballad by Ralph Mc Tell (Streets of London).
Great for shopping clubs, weddings, parties & celebrations!
As a troubadour, Chiel comes along and accompanies himself on guitar/mouth organ. The repertoire consists of English songs from the 60s - 90s. Think of protest songs like Blowing in the Wind (Bob Dylan)Testament, Meneer de President (Boudewijn de Groot). But also the beautiful ballad by Ralph Mc Tell (Streets of London). Rollercoaster (Danny Vera) , Hotel California (The Eagles) , Alive (Pearl Jam). He gets his insipration mainly from the songs of Neil Young, to which he owes his passion on the harmonica!
Other artists you can expect: Beatles, U2, Neil Young. Of course, Chiel has also thought of danceable songs like This is the Life (Amy McDonald) or the bluesy Call me to Breeze (JJ Cale). You can
sing along with songs like Losing my Religion (REM), Wild Rover (The Dubliners)!

English is his specialty. But you will also occasionally catch him with songs by Guus Meeuwis or Boudewijn de Groot! Later in the evening, as an extra option and the mood is right, I also like to play my own work. That's how you really get to know me!

Our question to Chiel was if he could also play some songs on the electric guitar. This he practiced and performed on stage. Great!
, Lenie
His battery was dead so Chiel had to get going and did a good job of setting the mood. Played and sang request songs.

Wij hebben Chiel gevraagd op te treden voor mijn verjaardagsfeest. Het was een groot succes! Hij heeft een mooi repertoire en bracht sfeer tijdens ons tuinfeest, met mooi gezongen liedjes die hij zelf heeft begeleid. Zeker een aanrader!

Before his performance, Chiel made clear arrangements about cost, duration and what kind of music would be played. Chiel is truly an artist, very flexible in terms of repertoire and interpretation of the evening. All in all a very successful evening.

Chiel is a sociable man who was right on time. An intimate living room concert which led to an enjoyable evening!

We had a small party but it was really nice with the presentation from Chiel! Everyone enjoyed, danced and laughed. See you next time!!!

our garden party was very enjoyable in part because of Michiel. Even though we had rain, Michiel set the right atmosphere. Michiel is very flexible and involves the audience in his performance.

We had a birthday party in honor of becoming Sara and Abraham. This was held at a restaurant, where we had a delicious bbq. It was a quiet get-together with family and friends (about 50 people). Chiel who came halfway through and played several sessions. He walked among the people with his guitar/mouth organ. He had distributed lists around from which the guests could pick a request song. It was a nice brightening of our party. We enjoyed ourselves.

Friendly man and good show

After Chiel arrived at our anniversary party at the table tennis, hooking up and sound checking was quickly done. After that Chiel played a wonderful set where we had a great time. Chiel felt free and played his guitar with great ease, the highlight being 'Creep' (don't let Radiohead hear it :) )

Super fun party I had on my 50th birthday thanks in part to Chiel's performance. He played a nice mix of English songs on guitar. Occasionally also with harmonica, very nice! Also super how he accompanied me on guitar while playing a song on my ukulele. It was a great evening!

Chiel was a pleasant atmospheric presence without being overpowering at our company opening.
, Dana
We are very satisfied with Michiel's performance. Pluses: - Very nice music! You choose the songs you want from a very long list. He even does request song(s) on top of that. - He brought an extra musician to the gig. - Responds quickly to emails and questions. - Fluent, spontaneous and pleasant man!

Last Sunday, Chiel supported us his guitar and vocals. Was great fun and immediately added value because of the good quality and Chiel had a good sense of where his presence added value. (via Google)

Was a success, it was a neighbors party where he came to perform. Everything else was just fine.
, Annelies
Last Sunday we invited Chiel to our neighbourhood party. He fitted perfectly in the relaxed atmosphere and the target group he had in mind. We were also pleasantly surprised with a spontaneous duet with a violinist In between there was also a workshop for the kids with all kinds of musical instruments, super fun!
, Peggy
Michiel created a warm atmosphere with his music. Ideal for events or a smaller garden party. He has a wide range of songs he can sing, so there is something for everyone. We still get compliments to this day about his music.
, Denise
We really enjoyed our day. It was a small group to celebrate a birthday in the garden, and Michiel was a perfect addition to them. He sensed the atmosphere very well and played matching music. The interaction between him and the guests was very relaxed. We would do it again in a heartbeat

For the wedding Chiel was there briefly. He took care of the music for the guests. Everything went according to plan and he did a good job. Very satisfied with Chiel!

Well done yet you may be less in the foreground during an exhibition. guests come to watch work. Then quiet background music is enough.
