Reviews
, Vrienden van de Grote Kerk Gorinchem
As stated in the title, it was a delightful lunch concert in Gorinchem's Grote Kerk on Wednesday, June 25. Robbert Fossen and his fellow musicians play delightful blues and gospel. The explanations were also great. In short: worth repeating!

Absolutely a top-notch band! The contact beforehand was good. On the day itself they were right on time and exuded professionalism. The show itself was beyond expectations and everyone enjoyed it! They knew how to sense the atmosphere perfectly and made it an unforgettable performance. Highly recommended to anyone looking for quality and reliability!

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
