Hi, I'm a singer/songwriter, originally from the Netherlands (don't worry, I sing and write in English). I've been singing semi-professional for over 14 years with lots of experience performing. I also play piano and guitar, moderately but well enough to support myself. My style is a mix of pop, jazz and folk I would say. See influences.

Influences
I'm a huge fan of Amos Lee, an American folk singer who sings jazzy, soulful folk-pop songs, with a hint of blues. I just love that Amos Lee/Norah Jones/Paolo Nutini kind of vibe. Other inspirations are Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson and a Belgian band called K's Choice. More recent inspirations are Paolo Nutini, Ben Platt and a Dutch Jazz musician called Wouter Hamel. I can also enjoy singing pop ballads by for example Lady Gaga or show tunes from Waitress. Sara Barreilles is amazing.
