The Ministry of Blues, just 2 men + 1 woman strong, plays a mixture of Blues, soul and other great songs from the 60s and beyond. All this in their own jacket at a nice volume. So also suitable for the somewhat smaller occasions or even living rooms.

THE MINISTRY OF BLUES
A full-evening program featuring delightful, danceable music from the ’60s and beyond. Consisting of two men and one woman, the Ministry puts on a wonderful show. A small band with its own equipment is included in the price. Suitable for a wide variety of occasions—atmospheric, fun, and lively. Experienced.
Wilfred Vermeulen—vocals/guitar/harmonica
Karl Huisman—drums/vocals
Manon Barendsen - bass

THE MINISTRY OF BLUES draws from a very broad repertoire of BLUES, ’60s rock, and soul. The name itself says something about the repertoire: Because what exactly is the blues? The Ministry has been trying to find an answer to that question for years and (therefore) covers the entire spectrum of blues, rock, and soul in a repertoire that the two men and one woman themselves wholeheartedly support and find joy in. Three musicians? Yes. Nice and compact, straightforward, no-fuss blues. Done.

P.S. Are you throwing a party and want to surprise someone with a song you sing yourself or that’s special to you? Upon request, the Ministry can learn the song and perform it at your event (provided it’s feasible and somewhat suitable for the Ministry’s lineup).
