Swing pop with the youngest crooner in the Netherlands

Whether Thijs is on stage with a Big Band or with tape, he knows how to convince at every event with his interpretations of well-known songs by Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole and Michael Bublé, among others. But Thijs also loves songs by Michael Jackson and Elton John.

But with his own music, Thijs Swinkels focuses on Dutch-language Swingpop. He is working on his first EP together with producer and composer Mark Pepping and lyricist and singer Tony Neef. With the first track 'When will I see you again', Thijs can go to the final of the Regional Song Contest for the province of Utrecht. Thijs also makes adaptations of well-known hits such as 'Automatic' (Flemming) and ' Kijk Omhoog' (Nick & Simon) for TikTok Swingpop.

Thijs therefore also has a real crooner set of 30 minutes with hits from Michael Bublé to Dean Martin, Neil Diamond and Frank Sinatra and a Dutch-language Swingpop set with well-known big band versions of hits by Flemming, Nick&Simon, Yves Berendse and Jaap Reesema, among others.
