BANDS/PROJECTS
Mary Davis Jr.
Put together by the young and talented singer [Marleen van Emmerik] Mary Davis Jr. is a brand new band with original compositions and an interesting line-up. With vocals, bass, guitar and percussion you can think of an "unplugged" kind of sound, but the band manages to combine strong R&B grooves with a bluesy/jazzy approach in a way that you defnetly will not miss any of the power this music needs. We recorded our first tracks in spring 2007, so check MARY DAVIS Jr on myspace.

4am
4am developed itself from a "jazz standard" group into a band with it's own sound and repertoire. We play original music, and our compositions show our love for the jazz tradition, as well as our affinity for funk and rock music. You could call this "fusion", but who wants to put labels on music? :)
The current line up is a quartet, and we finished our second demo CD in early 2007.

Candela
Latin Jazz! Wouter, who lived in Cuba for a year, leads this group and brings in the most authentic influences. We are writing more and more tunes of our own, and the group keeps on developing itself while we all enjoy the rhythms and the energy of Latin-American music with a jazzy touch to it.
