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.

Last December, Thijs Swinkels performed at the Scheepvaartsmuseum in Amsterdam. We had heard about Thijs from several event organizers and so we had booked him. He gave a spectacular performance in the main hall of the museum. As our guests entered, Thijs sang while smoke machines behind him filled the hall with white smoke and colored lights illuminated the smoke. It was an amazing spectacle to see. His low voice, stylish black suit and his performance on stage made the show a joy to watch. We received many compliments on his performance and we were very happy to have chosen him to entertain our guests. We wish him all the best in his career.

We booked Thijs Swinkels for a performance for 170 guests during the MeerBusiness New Year's Reception at the Holland Casino in Amsterdam. Our guests were pleasantly surprised to hear a 19-year-old sing the repertoire of the old Crooners. His low warm voice combined with his smile and enthusiasm are very pleasant to watch and to listen to. We were so impressed with Thijs that we booked him again to perform as singer and pianist at our annual Gala Dinner this summer for 250 guests at the Felix Meritis in Amsterdam. Thijs was extremely professional in taking care of his performance and we were very pleased with the result.

The Amsterdam American Business Club is a business networking organization that also provides opportunities for young business professionals. With that in mind, we hired Thijs Swinkels, a 19-year-old singer and pianist to perform at a networking event last November for 85 members at the Hard Rock Hotel in Amsterdam. What a fantastic entertainer! Thijs started playing the piano and when all the members arrived, he sang a jazzy repertoire of songs by Frank Sinatra, Michael Bublé and Neil Diamond. Thijs had chosen fun songs to sing and brought a wonderful atmosphere to our members during the meeting. He even got the whole room singing to "Sweet Caroline." We were so pleased with Thijs that we booked him again for our Christmas event last December at the Marriott Hotel and most recently for our February event at Restaurant 1e Klas at Amsterdam Centraal. He is a charming, well-dressed performer in a suit with patent leather shoes who delivers exactly what he promises. He is a young entrepreneur who lives up to his commitments. As a business club we really appreciated that. Thijs; huge thanks and hopefully you can perform again at a next AABC meeting.
