Barrelhouse.
In the 40+ years of their existence they have toured the clubs over and over again, worked with some of the greatest names in the music scene. They produced some 15 albums and a DVD. They were admitted to the Dutch Blues Hall Of Fame in 2012 and in the same year singer Tineke Schoemaker received the award for Best Blues Singer from the Dutch Blues Foundation.
The members who once started BARRELHOUSE are all still in the band today. And last year they released a new album ‘Almost There’ which is among the best things I have heard lately!
I shot these pictures of their show at Poppodium P60 Amstelveen last Friday.
BARRELHOUSE is: Tineke Schoemaker (vocals), Guus Laporte (guitar), Johnny Laporte (guitar), Jan Willem Sligting (bass), Han van Dam (piano) and Bob Dros (drums).
