Book a real street performer! Chiel has been playing covers of known and lesser known pop songs from '60 to now for a lifetime. 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
Great for shopkeepers associations, weddings, parties & celebrations!
Chiel will come along as a troubadour and accompany himself on guitar/mouth organ. The repertoire consists of English songs from the 60s - 90s. Think for example of protest songs like Blowing in the Wind (Bob Dylan) Testament, Mister President (Boudewijn de Groot). But also the beautiful ballad by Ralph Mc Tell (Streets of London).
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). Singing along with songs like Losing my Religion (REM), Wild Rover (The Dubliners)!
The given price is an indication. Please leave your specific wishes in the application for a tailor made proposal!
English
is his specialty. But you'll also catch him playing songs by Guus Meeuwis or Boudewijn de Groot ! Later in the evening, as an extra option and when the mood strikes me, I like to play my own work too. That's how you really get to know me!

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.

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)

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!

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.

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.
