“Tunnelvision”

“Quiet Kenny’s Return”

Last week I released my new CD “Tunnelvision” for Embrace Recordings. A big shout out from Rotterdam to L.A. @ Mark de Clive-Lowe, who produced the album! It was a crazy week.. We did 3 performances in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Utrecht.

We kicked of with a show in Paradiso on oktober 27th. The venue was filled with a nice crowd and was good to see so many friends there! Thanks for coming!! We got a very good review of that show in ‘de Volkskrant’.

review Volkskrant 29th oktober by Koen Schouten (click to read):

That same morning I did a live performnance and some interviews on Radio6 in a program called ‘The Beat‘. It was a duo performance with Martin Rascher who plays samples/laptop etc in my band.

On thursday (okt 29th) we performed at Club WATT, in my hometown Rotterdam and on saturday okt 31th we performed at SJU (Utrecht).

Here you see a little impression of the gig in SJU:

3fm DJ Giel Beelen wrote in de ‘VARA-Gids’ (sorry Dutch only): “In mijn radio 6 jazz programma op zaterdagavond draai ik al weken tracks van het album ‘Tunnelvisions’. Heerlijke funky tracks van deze trompetist eproduceerd door Marc de Clive-Lowe . De track met soulzanger Ivar Vermeulen (Common Ground) is een van de vriendelijkste waarmee hij makkelijk wereldwijd (ook bij de Amerikaanse jazz stations) zou kunnen scoren.”

And another 3fm DJ Gerard Ekdom put us on #6 in his freak 11-list.
