Memphis Soul Stew represents a balanced stew richly flavored with all those typical "Southern" ingredients that come together from the wide Memphis-Tennessee region.
The raw base with the salt and acid is the blues, the sweetness is the gospel, balanced by the Rhythm & Blues with the earthy tones of country.
And flavored in all its facets with soul, lots of soul.
The Memphis Soul Stew does not play a series of the big hits from the enormously rich "Memphis legacy," this would also be impractical; it is a thoughtful and balanced menu of more-or-less familiar songs, each song "serving up" the depth and sophistication of the aforementioned stew.
Join us on this musical (and culinary) journey to-, in and around- Memphis and be figuratively immersed and carried away in the deep caverns of this historic city.
We are happy to reveal some of the ingredients and flavorings in our recipe:
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 and others.
Put
these "tastemakers" into one "melting pot" and try to imagine the flavor explosion you will experience.....

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
