My Bands
JAZZ-O-MATIC FOUR has been around since the late seventies. I joined in the mid-eighties. We have performed all over Europe, the US, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. Our music leans towards the Beiderbecke-Venuti-Rollini style of jazz. We’ve been called “The World’s Smallest Big Band” because we have a 3-piece rhythm section and four soloists (five when Ronald is added), which makes the band sound much bigger than the quartet that it is.
The musicians are:
- Peter Ivan cornet
-Ad Houtepen bass saxophone & vocals
- Hans de Bruijn piano & vocals
- Tom Stuip banjo & vocals
-Ronald jansen-Heijtmajer, Alto Sax & Clarinet
CDs: “Happy Feet”, and “Clap Hands”
